Well, just scored a 200es for pretty cheap. It's fairly complete, it's missing the recoil starter, gas tank is missing, incorrect seat and it needs a key for the ignition. My question is, what other ATC's could a get parts from to fit this model. The seat and recoil look very similar to a 200s. I found the new plastic gas tanks on ebay for under $90, so I will most likely just buy that one when I get a few more bucks. I will get some pics of it up tomorrow, I just got home and its dark out. Also, does anybody know what wires I should jump out to bypass the key switch just to see if she has any life to her. Thanks in advance.

The manual you can download from this site has a wiring diagram in it that will tell you what wires need to be jumpered to bypass the ignition. I had an issue and I found it easy to follow. You said you found a plastic tank o ebay for an 84 BRes? Can you tell me the add number, I'm interested if it's a supplier for these things.

coolpool, sure he is the ebay link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350358937019&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_3119wt_1167

I got the service manual and I jumped out the ignition. I have it running now but still need those other parts. Time to start searching.
