ok, whenever I put my bike away for the night, in the morning, it takes like 12 kicks to start, or 5-8 hard ones.
for the rest of the day, even If you let it sit for an half hour-hour, it starts first kick.
once it is started, it pulls great, and runs really good.
what could the problem be?
even when I run all the gas out of the fuel line, and shut the fuel valve, in the morning when I go to start it up it is hard at first.
the weird thing is, the very first or second kick, it combusts once or twice, then dies. then it takes some more kicks after that before it starts.
do I need new rings?
how hard is it to install rings?
do I need to remove the entire engine?
here's my engine.
(pay no attention to the green circle)
It looks like it has enough clearance to where when you get the head off, you could pull off the jug, and put the rings on the piston.
last question. does it require any special tools to install rings?
