Hey Joe Bly....recognize this? Ran out of projects....well at least the ones I wanted to tackle....we have no snow to play in so I decided to work on this.....a former boyfriend of Zoes took it a couple of years ago to work on it and it never ran again...1st step.....took apart the carburetor.....full of shit.. ordered a rebuild kit.....step 2....took out the air cleaner...full of whatever the mice decided it needed......step 3....front rim was cracked...found one on eBay and that arrived today.....replaced the missing spokes in that one from the cracked one and now have a good rim....step 4....handlebars bent and throttle busted.....happened while supposedly being repaired....ordered new bars and throttle assembly....step 5....took the chain off, cleaned that up and removed a couple of links....was considering a top end rebuild but didnt feel like investing another $200 just yet....so....in a few days when the other parts get here well see if it lives again...... The other project sitting in the background....the girls sled....new coil arrived...installed that and it fired right up.....adjusting new track and discovered the adjusting bolt is bent.....have to get yet another part....but it is running again....still NO SNOW :-)
