PLEASE HELP! Resurrecting 1987 SE50P Elite and derestriction

[evilone]

Found the problem. Nut on the crank came loose making the pulley too far away for the starter to connect

I bet you'll be glad to hear that thing start up!

[martynkim]

Oh god yes! Can't wait to rip er up

[aerorob]

how did it all work? got it started yet?

[martynkim]

Not running yet waiting for kick cover from evilone

[martynkim]

Just got my new front wheel from the UPS man. (mine was bent) got it for $5 on Ebay

[evilone]

I didn't realize mail didn't run yesterday so cover should be to you tomorrow, Thursday at the latest.

[martynkim]

I kinda figured that It's cool

[martynkim]

Counting the seconds until I get the kickcover from the mailman. He probably thinks I weird now for 2 days Iv'e been running out to meet him

[evilone]

Let me know if it makes it today

[martynkim]

It didn't

[evilone]

It better be there tomorrow. I thought it was funny how priority is usually listed as "2-3 day". When i used the automated postal center the only priority was "2 day". Where did the 3 go? That's why i figured today would be the day. It was at post office ready to be shipped on sunday, then we had MLK day so cover went out tuesday morning. So would 2 day mean thursday?

Did it have a tracking number? priority usually does if you have the reciept still it is on there.

[martynkim]

If you have the number you can check usps.com and it will tell you where it is

[evilone]

I think receipt is in my truck, and i'm ready to crash for the night. be calm and get cover tomorrow

[martynkim]

I'm good just excited to get it to run. I still appreciate you sending it to me.
