?? Saw that before I even built mine. His is wayyy different than mine, he used a chopped up crankcase from a scooter along with a scooter cyl, scooter ignition, crank, ect. His runs very well to be honest!
so this is who you been hanging with
No, ive been hanging with you guys, that's why my poop doesn't run???, if I was hanging with him it would be running 6 months ago ???is who you been hanging with
It's pretty good, similar to a go-kart starter I think. Might need me one of themI love his home brew bump starter!
Cant tell if your being sarcastic or not but me too!! Hopefully soon. Need to replace a head gasket, get a new pullstart, decompression valve, new oil, and get race gas. First I'll tackle the decomp valve, then head gasket, pull start, and then fuel/oil.Oh I can't wait to see the "Z" version!!. ??
and get race gas
It's not to make more power is why I want race gas, it's to reduce the chance of detonation. That's the last thing I want so I'd rather pay a couple bucks more for it than blow a hole in my piston lol. 93 octane is pushing it, if that, I don't want detonation come knocking on my poop and then I got even more setbacks.Just get all that other poop and some normal premium petrol. Race fuel really won't help you until you get a baseline tune anyway. All the extra octane does is reduce knock during an aggressive tune. Octane just increases the amount of oxygen in the atomized fuel (in a vacuum). It alone will not actually make more power. E85 is the same principle. You need to have an engine that is already producing X power and want to improve it using your own tuning experience before you start going with exotic fuels and tuning principles.
You've had a ton of serious setbacks by trying to over reach your own goals with no budget. While I respect your verve, I also think that you are being your own worst enemy here. Try resetting yourself to the minimum viable product with the power plant you have and once you get it running, you can go berserk.
I assure you, running a 71cc motor in your Baja on regular petrol will blow your fekking mind, and break a ton of parts. There's no need to set unrealistic expectations for yourself. You need to learn to crawl before you walk.
I really don't want to see another episode of "Z gives in the ghost" again and have everyone on the forum walk you back from the edge. I want to see you succeed. But you gotta give the "I need only this or that kind of fuel" mindset a back seat to actually getting a running project off the ground. Make her run and move. Then make the power you want.

Ok I'll keep that in mind when I'm rebuilding it nx yrI ran ethanol free 91 in my 90cc, 65cc, for a tank or two and never had issues. You'll be fine to run 93 in it to get it going.
