Gas gets pushed out of my fuel line, into the tank again

Well, im broke, im between jobs and looking for another one, so I dont have much money at once, maybe a few bucks after bills and sh*t, but im looking gor a set of normal cable hand brakes. Not the best, I know, but I personally hate disk brakes on bikes. And ive crashed a moped going 25, I know it can hurt. Handling, im fine with, I just lack the funds for a set of decent cable brakes. And I only go around my block, which is like a 10 mph speed limit
No, just no.
 
No, just no.
I personally hate disk brakes. I cant bring myself to even attempt to put that s**t on a bike. I mean, f***, this is an experiment type of thing so I can get this thing riding how I like, break it in, cuz im not even done with the first half gallon of gas yet, and once I break it in and it gets to its max speed, or I start riding main roads, ill put better brakes on. But for where I ride, hand brakes work perfectly fine, and honestly, none of this s**t is helping. Even having no brakes for rn is working fine. I need help figuring out why my spark plug isnt sparking under compression. Not hear a bunch of s**t about not having brakes in a residential, low speed area
 
I once had a weak spark. I changes the magneto armature, that wasn't it. I changed the CDI, that wasn't it.
I changed the sparkplug and wire and boot lol guess what?
That wasn't it either :D
Turned out it was the magnet in the magneto armature that was the culprit all along.

One thing at a time Robert, fix one then test ride, you'll get it eventually.
 
It could be any of the electrical components. Most likely either cdi, magneto, or magneto magnet. Since it is sparking outside of cylinder I'm leaning toward cdi or rotor magnet. Try to get some brakes as soon as you can. Hopefully the financial situation gets better.
 
Everything runs smoothly, engine is broken in now, been riding the hell out of it. I just have a question concerning a gasket. The thin metal gasket between the top of the cylinder and the slant head, how important is that? Cuz I just started cleaning off the oil and dirt my engine fins and everything else collected over the past week, and I realized that the gasket broke, melted in one place, and frayed in 3. Ive seen and heard of people throwing it out fresh from the factory, but, if it's really not that important, why include it in the kit? Also, when I let the throttle open and reach what im assuming is max speed, the bike seems to lose a tiny bit of power and rpms, and quickly get it back, making like a " push - pull " type feeling. Should I be worried about it or why does it do that? And to those telling me having no brakes was a stupid idea, I still agree with y'all, but in 1 day alone ive had to make 27, yes, 27 oh s**t stops between my house and the gas station, because people driving down 441 in boca dont know how to drive, signal, etc, and I havent had so much as a fish tail or a close call using the engine provided brakes, which work best with the clutch pulled in, tried and tested before taking the bike on the road

Good you rode the hell out of it for break in in my opinion but not so good that the gasket could have failed any time while that was going on... They toss it and replace with a new one made from better metal like copper, and touch up the surfaces of the cylinder and head to make the best seal (and reduce weak points which end up blowing out..) so you'll want to wait back on riding until you've received another.

The push pull sounds a bit like 4 stroking or serious vibration at high speeds. Probably just 4 stroking, if letting off the throttle a tad instantly clears it up then it's just that.

I'm not clear how you are engine braking while squeezing the clutch, I'm almost certain you aren't going fast enough to be making any Oh s**t stops so the only way this is possible is that the bearings failed and are simply slowing you down when not under power or the chain is eating through something slowly...

Seriously dude! Do I need a head gasket? This is my as***le me which is pretty much me. If you want to ride or drive a motor powered machine, for god's sake study how the f*** they work. Your engine brakes the bike best when the clutch is pulled in? I knew I shouldn't type after whiskey, but how the f*** do you expect people to take you seriously if you don't even try to know what your talking about? Yip I did it.

Something seems off the wire to me as well, but curiosity of the completely disfunctional mind tells me I should post more comments and see how far the rabbit hole goes.
