Ok so im not exactly on my way to becoming a qualified mechanic! But ive managed to get our quad going after sitting there for about 8 years. And ive just got my mini moto going again after lots of swearing at it didnt work! :-k

Just simple stuff like stripping the carburettor down and draining fuel,checking spark plugs. Still a great feeling though when the ******* starts up though innit :D

Wish I could fix real bikes!

Trust me mate it is :D

If I can do it anyone can,im THAT bad at mechanics

I had my Dad there in case I needed a hand. 1st question was,whats the carburettor look like :lol: #-o

I sort of knew just wanted to make sure,incase I started stripping parts of the engine! Simple after that,check the throttle is opening and closing properly. Check the diaphrams movement and make sure any jets are not bunged up. Simple really, just remember what screws go where :)
