    funny thing: I took off that nut in the center of the the flywheel. the flywheel wouldn't come off. so I put the nut back on. and guess what? it has spark now. huh.

    ok, thanks. How might I go about testing the oil system? I'd like to check that over. there are actually 2 oil reservoirs. one in the motor itself, ig for the crankcase, and one under the seat, oil that gets burned. I'll probably drain that. Is there a way to adjust how much oil its...

    There’s another problem. the screws for the flywheel are totally stripped. I’m going to try to weld a bit of steel to them. To extract them, then just replace them. Otherwise I will get a lefty drill bit
