I arrived home from work today to find a heavy postage pack in my mailbox. Felt to be about the right weight of a brand new used stator and coil. I don't even know if I said hi to my wife as I headed trough the house and into the garage. Did a quick ohm check, and tossed it all in. Held the plug to the head and got beautiful blue spark! Just add fuel.
It came to life on the third kick. My three year old ran for cover. My wife cheered, baby attached at the hip. I was a hero!
All goofiness aside, it started, and I do feel pretty good. Yesterday when I was cleaning the carb I noticed the bowl gasket looked bad, and it is. It pours fuel. I'll get a hold of Rick at Off-road Boss tomorrow to see if he's got a gasket kit.
I know there will be more things to figure out, like adjusting the carb, but for now I'm stoked. Thanks for all the help. More to come.
