Ahhh, makes much more sense - I see now that Ed had modified his post.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

And I am ridiculously proud of myself! I haven't done anything like this before - I was just following BikeCliff's guide and it turned out fine
I realise this probably seems exceptionally amateur in the eyes of most people here but these are my first steps.
I made a video so I can remind myself what to do for next time
We all had to start somewhere. You'll do fine as new things pop up lol.
What oil is or was in the sump ?

"A sump (American English and some parts of Canada: oil pan) is a low space that collects any often-undesirable liquids such as water or chemicals."
I am not sure what it was but I replaced it with 75w90 GL5
I'm not very good at making myself clear sometimes
I meant the engine sump where the motor oil goes.
About your inter-mitten spark on 2 cylinders. Unscrew the spark plug caps one at a time and cut about 1/4" off the end of the wire. Then screw the cap back on.
If you look in the cap when you remove it you will see a brass threaded post the screws into the end of the wire, check it with a flashlight and make sure that it is clean.
A little spit on the end of the wire when screwing the cap back on makes it a bit easier.
That is an easy process to do and can only improve the spark. If you do them one at a time you don't mix up the wires.
