Brand new engine low compression (50 psi)

Should I tighten flower nut to the point that I can not move my bike forward at all unless I really give it a ton of force? Like I said it definitley is hard to push but maybe it could be harder to push...

When adjusting the flower nut on the clutch, make sure that you now have the clutch lever pulled in and locked in place, the clutch pads and pressure plates will now be in the DISENGAGED position.

Remove the flowernut set screw and then tighten the flowernut until you can't turn the back wheel at all, from there, turn the flowernut counter clockwise a "notch" at a time until you get the wheel to turn freely by hand and stop right there and put the lock screw back in place at that notch where the wheel turns freely...If you forget to put the set screw back, your clutch will back off and start slipping

When you release the lever it should of course now have the clutch totally locked up in the totally ENGAGED position and at this point you should have all the slippage totally out of it.

A picture would help

Okay I'll take one later I just left for the day. It's basically just a little bit of a kink I think my coworker who owned this before me probably tried bending the pipe

Where the heck do I find conventional 2 stroke oil? Everywhere I look online and for local stores near me it is synthetic, synthetic blend or simply unlabeled so I don't know if it's conventional or not

The only company I have found that makes it is Valvoline. It's labeled as 'Multi Purpose 2 stroke oil' and I posted a link to it earlier

Local gas station.

Ask for outboard oil.

Ok thanks

Walk into any Autozone store...They all carry the Valvoline multi-purpose 2 stroke conventional oil.

Ask for outboard oil.

Unless it's labeled as for use in air cooled engines, outboard oil is different than regular 2 stroke oil. Proper outboard oil is TWC3. T=two stroke, WC=water cooled, 3=3rd generation oil. That being said, some 2 stroke oils can be used in water cooled and air cooled engines.

Wally Mart used to have no name conventional two stroke oil. Don't know if they still carry it.
