[QUOTE="Digginrebel, post: 181294, member: 11949"] This is my ugly, first CT70 project that I nicknamed the Teacher because it has been a learning experience! I choose this 92 model as my first project for several reasons. First, it was cheap at $100, had a straight frame that needed a patch welded in under the seat and un bent forks and had original engine, though locked up. If it could be taken off and put back on backwards by a teenager - it was! There was nothing correct really at all, thus without fear of damaging an earlier model with my inexperience, it was perfect. My plan is to make a good runner, then tear back down and apply some paint to learn that as well, then use it around the farm. Everything is done and seems done correctly, EXCEPT THE CARBURETOR! I rebuilt original twice and no good. Broke down and got an aftermarket carb and now idles, but no throttle response. The carburetor Gods are frowning on me bigtime! I have yet to successfully work on any of my carbs on any of my projects. Not giving up, but darn frustrating![ATTACH=full]62593[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
