    95 is way too low. It should have like 175.
    1983 ATC 185s 200 jug bored .20 9.5:1 Naumura piston. Fast as ass when its not stretching the drive chain or stripping hubs.
    1986 ATC 250ES. *Total garbage trying to sell it*
    1983 YTM 200E. Runs good, forks are super bent but aside from that its mint.
    1984 YTM 200L. Barn find, everything is mint except the bottom end is bad... *waiting on a new engine*

    yep 95 is low on a 2 stroke, a 4 stroke prob wont run at all or be very weak

    in freshman yr we had a old xr75 that ran out of compression, no $ to fix it so we put half lucas oil in the motor, drilled the jets all the way out to run alcohol, and pulled it behind the truck for about 5 minutes. when we just about gave up it came back to life in a huge wheelie with flames shooting out the exhaust. it ran like that for a few months before it stuck a ring.

    will it pop on ether (starting fluid) or if you pour a spoofull of gas down the sparkplug hole? If not, then your timing is off. If it will pop then its carb related.

    Make sure no rodents are residing in the exhaust or airbox.

    Have you checked to ensure you timing is correct? If not read article below and get motor in time.
