An overdue update to my Tecate project. Page 6

did you try to pre-load fuel into the cyl? if the floats are off at all, the carb goes dry and you can kick till your leg is numb and nothing happens. Preload an oz of fuel from your tank straight into the cyl and then kick it over see if that works

Me and my wife recently moved, so things have been kinda hectic. To get away from the house and relax I've been going out to the farm and working on my Tecate. I got it started a couple of months ago and then it wouldn't do anything the next day. I ended up buying a 350x and the Tecate has been on the back burner until these last couple of days. After breaking it down I found that the moon key was sheared off and the flywheel wasn't spinning. I got a new key installed and she fired right up! Now its running good, but the radiator is leaking at the bottom. Is there anything I can do about that? Would some sort of stop leak work in such a small radiator?

Sorry for the long post, but its been awhile.

I used JB weld on rads before, make sure its nice and clean and you apply it evenly and make sure you let it sit for a few days. And your golden!
