tri zinger

[krazykane]

hey guys what do you think .Saw it on craigslist at the local junk yard and had to pick it up have been looking for one for awhile .Iam in the process of still getting the two honda 70s up and running (almost there) so it will wait for alittle while but not bad on the first look over it not exshaust not pull cord and worse of all no spark.so what do you guys think it could be anything common.

Excellent snag! How much for that little bad boy?

[krazykane]

80 bucks hoping it wont take much to get her going

Damn good deal! That think looks clean. You can get the pull cord on ebay usually from $20-80. I believe I have seen them new on the for $79.95. Check the coil and see if there are cracks on it. Also You have to have the switch on the right handle bar on the "Start" setting. Then you have to switch it to run after it is going.

ok i will do with the switch i tried it on start and or run but nothing either way .the coil looks good no cracks under the fly wheel looks good clean ot all up (had little rust on edges)all wires connected .so any more suggestions i have nevered worked on one of this nor ride one so i want to .

They have a teather kill switch in the back by the grab bar. The kill switch is kind of like and old wave-runner type. Check out part "15" and "16".

That is what the kill switch looks like. PM me if you can't figure it out.

Did you say your just missing the pull cord? Because if thats the case you can go to your local lawn mower shop & buy some rope cheap & the plastic handle all for under $5. or are you missing the whole case too?

I have one that needs some repair on the inside mechanism that if I can find I will give it to you for the cost of shipping.

[krazykane]

thats would be awesome .let me know thanks in advance .and do you know if alot of poeple ripp out the tether line and bypass it cause mine does not have it i have a 85 so iam about to astart looking into it if it has one .i want this little thing running

[thestud25]

I left mine attached. I have 4 Suzuki Alt 50's that had a very similar setup that I just unhooked them and bypassed the wires. If I were you I would leave it and make a switch or you could unhook it and bypass the wires. The "key" for the kill switch is really easy to make. I can make a scan of the factory key and show you what it looks like as well as measure how thick it is.

[krazykane]

it is sparking and firing up not running but good enought til i clean the carb get a pull start exshaust pipe ,brake cable and some new back tires .thanks for the help so far i know i will need more
