I am working on the bike now. Side plate off and the magneto cant be put on any other way so thats not it. I had the head off earlier today to clean the top of the piston off. Lots of carbon buildup! I used some rough steel wool on it and got about half of it off and the rest i couldn't get off. But when the head was off i noticed there was no gasket. And this being my first motor-bicycle engine i didnt know whether it came with one or not. Should i make one? And in the next few days in my free time if i couldnt get the bike running (Good) i was planning on stipping down the engine and checking everything out.... but that was a last resort.
Any other ideas of problems it could be?
Also anyone know the factory adjustment for the carb needle hheight and idle adjustment?
ive heard of plugs that wont spark under compression so just in case ill try a new plug (That i know works) and see if she fires.
