OK, I am restoring a Tote Gote and a Bonanza. I am wanting to really use these machines. My family goes camping a lot and we live in a fairly rural area. I think I would get a lot more use out of these machines if they had headlights. How hard is it to add a real headlight? I'm not...

Hello I purchased a MQ Power JF 200 clone. I had an extremely difficult time starting this engine whether cold or hot. After reading I found that an idle jet drilled to 0.025 is the fix. Here is what I did and the engine starts very easily not and doesn't need choke or gas when warm...

$400 for both Honda Mini Trail 50's Been meaning to get one (blue) since I used to drive a 69/70 when I was little. but now isn't the time.

i prime the carb, and go to start it, it will not idle, and only stays running with the throttle on/held open. the filter was off to get you a visual of the carb. what would make the engine need the throttle open just to pull enough fuel through to keep it running? the carb is fully cleaned...
