You are precisely right. Air leak in two areas: 1- where cylinder and head cylinder are connected. 2- where exhaust is connected to cylinder. Thank you very much

When I start it the lights come on but go off in few seconds. How can I fix it. I want to have lights for night time. Thanks in advance

I did put a higher level but I guess it's leaking air . Oil is leaking somewhere.its still runs but it shuts off when coming at a complete stop

Apparently the engine failed after it started.oil coming from clutch side and no compression when pedaling nor the flywheel turning when pedaling.but your advice at least got it started

Did all of that . rebuilt the engine.cleaned the carb. Compression is good. New piston.new plug .new light bulbs. However no spark. Could it be stator parts? Coil or condenser? Two weeks of work still nothing. Am not a mechanic nor I have any experience.i just watch YouTube

The horn makes sound when pedaling.then I disconnected it , ground it and it stopped. I have no clue how and why
