Congrads stevelee!
1.) Battery is cycled down to a low charge. Not Dead like need replacement.
2.) Because it was weak so was spark at plug (like 9 volts)- Not strong enough electrical arc to ignite fuel/air. (I bet it spun over slow too). Boost battery brought voltage to starter back up to 12 volts and stronger spark electrical jump. (Engine spun faster.)
3.) One and a half hours running is not enough to keep a charge might restart tomorrow but not next week. So you need to charge up the battery on a trickle charger overnight (12 hrs.) to get it back strong. (12 volts)
Jinman may be able to tell you what the misconnection at left hand side wire bar & small white color plastic tabbing holder is all about.
I am happy for you!
Charge up the battery as the longer it is left at low charge the more long term damage it can sustain.
