I would love to see a shot of the hood. That Thing is cool! As for your heater, has it been out of use for a while? Sometimes they just need a little priming. You can put a little gas into the fuel line where it attaches to the heater. Make sure you don't spill any. If I don't use my heaters at least once every two months or so they usually end up needing to be primed.

Cool ride!
