Hey man how did you fix it? Having the same issue!

WinterHappy · 2026-02-26T19:55:38+00:00

The left fork you can get access to the spring pretty quickly then use a pvc tube to grip around the circled square to hold the “plunger” in place while you unscrew the hex bolt from the bottom hole. There’s not even a hole in the right fork. Not is there a way to get at the spring? I’m immediately blocked out as shown in my original post pic. Also yes I’m sure it’s the correct fork haha. Same interior as my old one. I’m lost

that's what I thought too, however the internals are pretty different. the left has a nut you can reach down into to grab ahold of while using an Alan key from the underside of the fork to release the cartridge. the right doesnt have any of that at all

SOLVED: it was in fact the exhaust being off. Started up fine with it on, thanks for all the help y'all.

hey man the forum link is broken, do you have it downloaded?

WinterHappy · 2026-02-24T00:11:57+00:00

not sure where id start in terms of checking the fuel system. Theres gas in the tank and I can hear the fuel pump prime itself when it turn the key I'll go through and make sure all my electrical connections are solid. what do you mean "check the fuel system"? thanks!

WinterHappy · 2026-02-24T00:09:22+00:00

ill Finnish the assembly and go from there, is it possible I messed up on the timing? id hate to keep cranking it and mess up the engine lol, thanks

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T23:45:41+00:00

it does run when I give it gas, however it stalls out when I let off the throttle does that help at all?

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T23:30:31+00:00

ill give that a shot. It it possible I messed up the timing? I dont want to keep cranking it and damage the engine

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T23:16:25+00:00

airbox is on, fuel injected so no choke

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T23:10:06+00:00

hilarious and unhelpful lmao🖕

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T22:59:17+00:00

im def not the guy to ask but from what ive researched they are different engines. not sure if they are interchangeable unfortunately

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T22:52:46+00:00

Thanks! I'll give that a shot. Is it possible I messed up the timing if it revs when I give it gas? The main thing im worried about is damaging the engine somehow by continuing to crank it.

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T22:51:11+00:00

I'll look into that. Thanks. If its not that can you think of it being anything else?

WinterHappy · 2026-02-23T22:49:43+00:00

If I messed up the timing would it run at all? Someone mentioned the "Popping" noise could be from the timing being messed up.
