OK, finally I have a chance to update with good news!
The thing runs!
I replaced all the parts that had issues on the back side and fixed the order of the washer and the sprocket.
Well... almost everything is good. The darn thing is just running terrible!
It has absolutely no bottom end.
It is sputtering like crazy.
Any slight incline and it just dies.
It will not idle at all.
I will be going down the road and it will sputter out and die on me.
Here are some of the facts:
I have checked the bowl of the carb and the jet isn't lose. The only thing that is loose in it was the float like it should be.
I have the idle screw turned all the way in and backed out 1 and a 1/4 turn.
I prime the engine 3-4 pumps.
I get to pedalling and get going to the road, release clutch and it fires away.
I adjust the choke half then to off (down, I am assuming this is correct).
Then the problems ensue after I have ridden for about 20-30 seconds.
Anyone have any suggestions???
Thank you everyone, it feels good to be back the boards again!
