I would love to send my 200 to "The Wolfs' Den" but unfortunately I have no extra scratch right now, had to buy a new truck.

Just tired, VERY hard to start on cold mornings and doesn't like to idle. I know it needs a new piston, has some carbon smears. I put a brand new OEM carb on it when I got it but it never did run right.

I can't remember for sure, less than 150, I think it was 120 or so. Been a while since I messed with it honestly, you know how it is when something is yours, it always seems to go to the back of the list.

120 is too low. It needs help.

Yeah I know, like I said I know the piston is done, just a time and money thing. That's all it ever is, right?

Well it might not be as bad as you think. Depends on if the cylinder is salvageable.Yeah I know, like I said I know the piston is done, just a time and money thing. That's all it ever is, right?

I think it probably will be, can't remember for sure but it seems like I had the jug off and it wasn't bad. They all start to run together after a while though.
