I had this problem after I installed my 450s. I had forgotten to lean the AFC before trying to fire it up. I think I fouled the plugs, and flooded the shizzle out of it. WD-40 the 450s, reinstall, doublecheck everything. Make sure to give it time to dry up and check the plugs. Also, make sure the SMC is set up. Once you get it started, don't shut it off until you have everything set up. I.e. let it come up to temp, tune it as much as possible etc...
