[QUOTE="ArcticMinibike, post: 171847, member: 10240"] I'm Back!!! I stalled on this project for a very long time, probably a year or so, but I'm pushing hard to get it done. I have a Major issue and I need help ASAP. I went to put on the new timing chain and found this under the stator... see pic. I thought it was odd that the plastic sides of the lower "roller" were chewed up a bit, and what an odd faceted pattern this lower roller had. I'm pretty sure it used to have teeth! This engine has over 7,000 miles on it. How the hell did it survive without a functioning oil pump drive for who knows how long? Please confirm a couple of things for me. It WAS the oil pump sprocket, right? To replace it, do I just pop off the clutch assembly and oil pump, thread the sprocket off the shaft, and thread the new sprocket (with teeth this time) onto the shaft? Any tricks to holding the shaft to get the sprocket spun off? Teeth on the main shaft look decent, but slightly worn. I hope that's good enough, because I'm assuming that's press-fit and no easy task to remove/replace.I'll replace the tension and cylinder rollers as well. [ATTACH=full]57149[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
