If you took the belt off and gave it a good kick the engine would fall right out.

No spark plug also. But if your lucky the piston will be at top dead center. LOL

Donat the engine and tc to your local high school shop.

belt is good, chassis steering ect is a miracle its together, all perts except sprockets, chain, tc and engine are gone! engine is at bdc, mini forest and a lot of sand in the engine, engine seized, tc driver is held together by rust and is stuck to crank shaft, i could fix the driver if i had access to a blast cabinet (i don't), and finally my school doesn't have a metal shop(nor does the high school ill be going to in 2yrs. also i have no where to store any of this and its in the middle of a sand pit, and i have no good way of getting it out. i could sell the belt, but tnhe only way i'm getting it off is by cutting it in half.

the good news, ok, so i got my project! i'm ripping that 2-stroke apart (the leaf blower)and re-building it,
here are some links

what do you guys suggest, replaicing (if any thing, other than gaskets). also, how do i get this crank shaft off? is it just pressed into the bearings, and i need to force it out with an arbor press or a gear puller? i can get pics if you want.

p.s. oh ya, once this thing is up and running its going on that little bike in this pic,



EDIT: i'm moving this into a project log thread
