At least its running.
lots of help at the lhs there, its running hot because its too new. the motor needs to be "broken in" before you worry about temps. it was not running without the ignitor before cause the idle was too low or the lsn too rich. so you went to the lhs and they leaned it out a bit but its still not broken in. if something happens to it now don't came back here posting how bad the motor was and how now its a "shelf queen". some lhs are total crap good luck.
