    My Tecate carb parts are suppose to be here today!

    We'll see if maybe it'll try and run. Hopefully tomorow my local dealer will have my reeds/airfilter in.

    Welp, we pulled it around alot. Its definetly trying...just not hard enough. Got excellent spark (Will make your whole arm twitch!) great compression, and its getting fuel. If it were a 4 stroke I'd say that its timing, but since its a 2 stroke its obviously not Right now I'm ruling it as the reeds, the ones that are in it are horrible. You can stick a pen tip between them and the cage. I guess until I get my new ones we won't know.

    :shock: :shock: Wow Have I had the Tecate that long?!?!? Man, It ran but I almost got myself killed on it because an airleak in the intake boot made it run wide open on me going down a hill without any brakes or kill switch. Thats a whole other story though.
