im not fully understanding. Why would you gain anything from the bottom end being smaller? Because on a 2 stroke the fuel and air charge gets sucked into the crankcase as the pistons rises in the bore. Then when the piston drops, the fuel and air charge is forced into the cylinder. The smaller the ...

I have used both of those plugs on a spree with no difference. Perhaps your Elite is different. One way to find out is by putting your old plug back in and see if speed increases. Well on the Spree the '84 thru '85 uses the BPR6HS and the '86 thru '87 uses the BPR6HSA and guess what changed in 1986...

On my wife's Elite the body panels are held together with grommets and little half-screws, I mean those. Take an example to the parts store, they may be able to fix you up. My quad uses pop rivets to hold body panels together. The dealer's rivets were $2.50 a piece. The 10 pack at the auto parts st...

I would think the Spree engines would be prime candidates for stuffers.

Case stuffers are devices mounted in the crankcase area to reduce the volume of the crankcase. Which significantly increase low speed air velocity. This dramatically improves low/mid range throttle response and improved power throughout the RPM range. Quite often mounted behind V-block reeds but not...

Still sounds like a weak battery. Have you tried cranking the engine with a battery charger connected to the battery? The switched contacts on the solinod are the big wires.

I did pull the starter and replaced it with another one that i had. but before installing i turned them over to see how fast they turned, the old one was definately slower, but the new one installed turned faster but the suction of the piston with my ...
