Im sorry im posting here but im not allowed to post in other threads since i just joined this site.
Well i just got a honda atc 70, it took me to my childhood.
I have a couple questions, they might sound amateur questions but the fact is i dont have much mechanical knowledge.
1- anybody knows where the pull start can be sent for repair or restore?
2-i got a honda atc 70 last week, since the pull start is broken and i wanted to make sure the engine wasn’t frozen or stuck, i put the gear in third, the highest, removed the spark plug and pushed the bike 4 or 5 times for a 10-15 feed distance to make sure the piston moved.
Well here is the question: the bike have been sitting for a few years untouched so most likely, or i guess there is no lubrication in the cylinder and piston, so the test I performed trying to find out if the piston moved can leave scratched the cylinder or any other harm due lack of lubricant? I checked the oil level before and its on the minimum, i added a picture.
Thanks in advance.
