I know this may sound weird but try pushing throttle down some when cranking it. When I went to start mine after several months of sitting, it coughed sprouted but if i worked the throttle alittle it stay running after a min or two on it own. Acted like the low idle setting didn't catch after it started.

Everything gear driven so no jump time. Thinking along the lines a Monkey's post oil pan has antifreeze or oil in coolant? This one is straining my brain.

In the video, it acts like it had water in the fuel system. it doesn't take but a few ounces to screw things up. I'd open all the injector lines and pump a whole lot of fuel out of them, then close them down and try to fire it up again.
