[QUOTE="j1mmy, post: 5419, member: 287"] I turned the flywheel and it turned freely with no bad sounds at all. With the spark plug out its easier to push the kick start lever down and it is noticible that there may be teeth missing as I pushed down. The no start problem was a miss adjusted float that wasn't letting the carb bowl fill up. Once I fixed that I was able to bump start it but it started smoking BAD and was dripping oil from the exhaust opening of the head and also out the bolt hole/ bottom of chain guard bolts on. I guess we'll be cracking open the case. I didn't see the final assembly so I can't comment on how well it went back together. I hope I'm more lucky than stupid. I'm thinking I need a kick start shaft for sure - DrATV has a few different ones - do I get the shaft and all the parts, rings, clips on the same page or wait until the motor is opened up? [/QUOTE]
