It usually says 149.5 at the base of the cylinder under the fan shroud. I'm not getting what you mean about the spring like thing. Mine has a hose clamp at the entrance to the carburetor into the airbox hose. If the hose is crimped or twisted you'd be restricting the air flow. There must be a tutorial over in the tech section about valve adjustments. I'm sure our fearless leader has something there. I know the manuals have instructions about adjusting valves. It's .004 inch for the intake valve and .005 inch for the exhaust. In the meantime be calm about breaking in the motor, it will pay you back later.

That is the hardest thing right now is to be patient.. All the roads where I am the speedlimit is 50.. So I have to just ride it around my complex and at night when I can just cruise down the quiet roads..
Yes that is an antenna.. It has a radio, but I took it out.. You couldn't hear it.. (the speakers stunk). And as for that glove box.. Its not the whole thing.. Its acutally small that is where my gas tank is.. And there a set up for a 250cc engine if I wanted to convert to 250cc.
I have to keep telling myself this is a new engine and I have to baby it.. I heard Sentry was better then seafoam, but don't know where to buy the stuff. Can you get seafoam at an auto store?? I will be totally happy when everything is working right.. I have to find out how to control the air filter. And now the valves and whatever else I have to do..
The block under the side of the case is BLANK.. they didn't put anything there I have to look around on the engine to see if there is anything there.. Just as long as it runs good and I can use it to go places around here I will be happy.. Its just the roads here have high speed limits.. (45-65 mph)...

Yeah it is pretty big.. think the weight is like 300lbs.. I has the 250 body with the 150 engine.. Could someday turn it into a 250 it has the setup for it.. but who knows about that..
Well this is going to be a short lived done.. I have to take it apart again.. The ride sounds terrible. Sounds rough.. But I have to find out why my GAS GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER and TRIPODOMETER is not working.. Dont know if its a short or the rectifier. If it is the rectifier. I have to take the whole side off just to get to it.. And I dont know if there is an air leak. I think there is its loud and rough.. I need a exhaust gasket and have to check other things. It was fun to ride for a couple of days, but these things need to be fixed before anything.

So, on the stator.What issues did you run into with the engine when changing the stator? You bought that from T-motorsports?

Stator switched out with no problem.. There was NO issues with the swap. I think there is an issue with the rectifier or something since the gauges don't work.. I have check wires out the wasue and they seem to be ok.. No, I bought the Engine from Tmotorsports.. they are a rip off.. But its in now and I have to deal with it. It just getting the little things done.. I had everything off before and well seems like i have to do it again.. like I said it was nice to ride a couple of times but I have to fix the other things..
