The size of the engine has nothing to do with the belt fitting or not.

Generally a turn wheel that can be stopped by grabbing it is not an issue.

Not everyone can afford a $125 compression tester or needs one for that matter. *, I had a Mercury Marine test with no hose that was like $35 back in the day but is around $60 today. FYI, I have found if you are getting the varied readings you claimed, that it is almost always a dirty or bad schrade...

How are you measuring the RPM of the engine?

How do you know your Harbor Freight tester is off by 15 PSI?

Change to a 2.75X10 tire

You are aware that your speedometer lies by at least 3 mph? Sp 32 indicated will be 29 actual mph.

Hello , Was surfing around and found this site while i was looking for approximate value of a pair of 1986 honda spree's. They both are in great condition with one that has almost 1400 miles and the other that has about 1200 miles on it. I have a pretty good idea what they are worth but wouldn't mi...

Never thought of that one. It would be cool but would involve trailering for most of us. I don't mind but others might.

I'm not buying the CDI and coil made any difference, mainly since none of the old pros have ever seen a improvement. If the stock stuff is good, all you did was install parts with a lower reliability factor.

Just use the bigger 125 seat.

Unless you check the compression with a gauge, you have no clue what the compression is. Moving air will happen at 40 PSI but the engine will never even fire there. The magic minimum number is 114 PSI but and engine will run with 90 PSI.
