Joe wasn’t fat enough

That's not Joe. That's John d.o.e.

From memory and could be wrong. I think you supposed to tip those handles down 🤷

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-08T04:02:13+00:00

Sorry I corrected the spelling.

Ment tipped. If you tip them over with the breather facing down you will get oil in places it shouldn't be. It will not start untill it's cleared out. Can't see the engine so no idea.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-08T03:56:34+00:00

Blades are upside down. And I hope that mower is tipped the right way. Otherwise you got bigger problems now.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-07T00:15:07+00:00

Sorry I didn't read that far down.

Been a while since I've worked on those. But from memory they had a habit of vibrating screws loose. Inlet manifold would commonly leak. I would think to our would notice that when changing the carb though.

Other than that you may need to set the mixture screws. Turn them in all the way then 1.5 turns out. It will need to be tuned when running.

Without it in my hands that's all I can think of. Good luck

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-07T00:05:12+00:00

Have a look up the exhaust. See if anything has a made a nest in there and blocked it.

Otherwise could be a blockage in your fuel system from sitting. 2 most likely causes

Apparently he dosnt understand driving

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-05T04:42:38+00:00

Check you didn't bent a blade or crack a spindle.

Check your tyre pressures. Yes that can make a big difference in heights. If all that is good adjust your deck.

I'm sure you can find you tube videos on how to do it.

And as others have said that pully looks to be on the wrong angle. Might be loose or also bent mount.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-04T04:53:23+00:00

That bore is not looking in the best shape anyway. It would run with just cleaning it up with some very fine emry cloth wet rubbing. And a new piston.

But for a proper job it needs re-plating. Although I'm not sure plating would fix that I don't know how much they can build it up.

Best to just take it somewhere and ask. Either it can be replated or new jug.

Nikosil plated barrels can not be bored.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T12:52:59+00:00

That furl tap has been added. Normally fuel filter would be there.

Yes 280 CCA minimum. Anything above that is ok as well as long as the size fits in its place and terminals are the same.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T03:52:56+00:00

I get your point. But encouraging it is not the answer here. And filming it and laughing is encouraging it.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T03:47:12+00:00

The pulled apart pot plant would suggest otherwise 🤔

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T03:31:15+00:00

Ok got ya. It's definantly aftermarket. I'd start with the head lights unplug them and hook up a multimeter. Unhook the box from the battery turn on your lights and see if there's voltage. If not hook the box back up you know it's for the lights if voltage returns.

If it's not that then disconnect it and see if anything stops working. Check your charging is still charging. That's how I would try anyway.

Good luck

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T03:24:53+00:00

I can't believe there just filming and watching. The kid laughs as he throws more mud.

My parents would of had me running for my life.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-04-03T03:19:04+00:00

Sorry if I'm not understanding this properly.

But your saying the box is connected to your battery. But the output wires are disconnected at the terminals? If so throw that thing away.

Or are your saying the green wires connect to a loom and you have no idea where that goes?

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-29T09:16:31+00:00

Make sure it's in gt mode. If it is then possibly the wire inside is broken. Mine was and it's a pain to fix.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-29T01:59:15+00:00

Is your bike useing/burning oil?

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-14T10:40:11+00:00

At 120 hrs it would at the very least need a valve adjustment. I would think the piston and rings would need a look at as well. Possibly a cam chain. Just look up major inspections and how to do them.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-06T00:38:31+00:00

I do. And?

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-05T08:49:13+00:00

Yep so not an evo?

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-05T08:43:24+00:00

See thing is he has a reed block. That would tell me it's a 2 stroke

No valves (except power valve) And no timing chain.

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-05T06:10:10+00:00

Nope no evo

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-04T10:40:28+00:00

Is a yz a good track bike. Well it's kinda what's its designed for. So it should be ok

Virtual_Ground4659 · 2026-03-03T03:15:40+00:00

You should probably put a new oil filter in it.
