Ha ha... that youtube video is actually me firing up my 235 for the first time since purchasing it. My buddy posted it. Yeah, the dolly is okay and as stated the engine hoist kept it upright. I will say, that same engine broke one of those dollies BUT, I degreased the engine on it and it had been wet and dried several times. Plus, the vibration of the driveway and garage rolling it in and out put too much strain on one of the wooden crossmembers. Other than that, no problems.

You can tell how bad the carb was in need of a rebuild when rev attempts are made. Fixed and running fine in my 46 now.
