Can the cam chain be to tight? And if so can you add links to it without taking the engine down?

Something still isn't right. New battery, new starter, new solenoid. I am wondering now if it is timing. GRRRRR |

Tried that. I found a few screws but there are a few that are hiding from me.

I am looking to find some of these but the ones I find are for the 50cc models. Is there a difference between the 50 and 150cc versions? What is the Vento part of the title mean?

I will check the valve when I get home, but that still confused as to why the engine will only turn counterclockwise.

Rich,
I am having an issue with the engine turning in the right direction, I can not turn the engine clockwise on the fan side and counterclockwise on the variator side. I KNOW I did everything that I was supposed to and this is starting to confuse me. I have worked on this for a while and I love the challenge and more than that I love the fact I learn a great deal from this project. Now I need to hear it run. Right now it's not and I can not figure out why.

Total Noob question:
Is it POSSIBLE to have my engine running backwards (i.e. Counterclockwise.) Thus casing it not to start properly?
Failure is not an option!!!
