Is the jug saveable via a hone or bore? Otherwise what all will i need?

-cylinder
-rings
-head gasket

anything else?

So this is a picture of the cylinder wall... is this little fingernail deep scratch the reason I'm only building up 30 psi? And if you can include how sure/positive you are, that would be insightful.

Okay, so i ran a compression test and I'm not even able to build up 30 psi...
so i see that it says to look at head gasket... yada yada yada

I looked at the reed valve, and it's for sure closed and not leaking there.

I took the head off and there's decent carbon build up ontop of the piston, and ...

So i bought anew battery for it and now this is what's up:

- The starter turns and it's sucking fuel down into the carb now.
- It's not starting... i'm not sure if i'm getting spark...


My question is what do i have to do to make sure the carb is set correctly?

There are three screws on the carb ...

My suspection is with the fuel valve... because unless it's just not getting vacuum, it's not working. Otherwise it'd be sending gas

It doesn't really seem like the carb is getting much vacuum, or else i feel like it'd be releasing gas from the tank.

How many psi is it supposed to produce in order to let the fuel valve allow fuel to flow?

And what is the electrical bit that's running to the gas tank? Is that for the gas gauge?

no, i pulled both the gas lines off and nothing from them... and when i jumped the starter per say it doesn't even sound like it want's to start.

I have no idea what to diagnose next.

When i press the start button there's not even 12 volts getting to the starter... so could it be the starter ...

Okay, i just put an engine in my 84 spree. I transferred over a lot of parts like the starter/oil pump/carb. meanwhile today i went to start it up and nothing happened when i did the push button. I measured for voltage and wasn't getting any at the red wire going to the starter. The lights work, but ...

Hey, attached is the pictures of my carb, and a green hose underneath that i think attaches to where the arrow is pointed but the hose is burned through and the end of it doesn't look very good.

I looked in the manual but didn't get a very good picture of it... so if you guys could just look at ...
