I ran it long enough to get hot and discovered that there is water in the cooling system which means it holds water! I was half expecting rotted core plugs. I don't know if you can tell in the video, but it spits back through the carburetor a bit so I'm sure there is at least one leaky intake valve. I drained the oil and didn't find anything alarming so I'll concentrate on brakes and wiring for now.
