Geez dude, you must have the worst luck in the world. Seems like you're cursed or something!

Geez dude, you must have the worst luck in the world. Seems like you're cursed or something! Tell me about it  I got a message back from the eBay seller. " I will check on it for you. We listed what was on the certificate of destruction that came with the scooter. I admit I know very little about scooters. If you can't use it I will set up a return authorization, and send you a total refund. Please be patient, I will take care of it.
Thank you, Kem." Sounds good so far. We'll see how things progress. On a side note, anyone know of a used 1E40QMB for sale? |

Just wondering what ever happened with the TGB motor?
Are you still looking for a mina? Hope things worked out one way or another...

Sorry about the delay. Got the TGB sent back, got a full refund including shipping costs. Very nice folks over there. Just recently got back to trying to get it to work. I couldn't get it to start on initial rebuild, so I gave up and moved back over to the 1E40FM. Had that running for a couple of days or so thanks to 190mech's help with a cylinder and spacers, but ended up cooking that engine due to an air leak that I didn't know about  So I've been working on the Mina rebuild again for the past couple of days. Getting pretty frustrated with it. I'm seriously doubting my bottom end job. I used the old seals and bearings, and just threebonded the case halves together. I have new bearings, but I didn't have a bearing puller to get the old bearings off. The seals, I guess I was just in such a hurry to get it back together that I figured it would be ok enough to ride around for a while. When I get it started (which is with starting fluid ONLY) it runs, then dies. I know the carb is in working order, because it was on the 40FM before it cooked. I even swapped out the carb for my KX65 carb I got before the crash. I know it's getting fuel, because it's literally dripping out of the carb after a while of turning it over. I have spark. I really just miss having my working scooter that would start up at the tiniest blip of the starter and would let me cruise at 50+mph all day long. I've started to get really discouraged lately. Anyone willing to help me out? Maybe I can ship out my entire engine package to someone and see if they can get it to run for me, lol. At this point, I'm desperate enough to do something like that. :help: I've been looking around for a donor engine, but haven't found anything. Reign said he can sell me his, but I don't know if he can get it to me before he goes on vacation this coming week. If not, then it won't happen for another 2 weeks. I just can't wait any longer. And my grandmother is just pushing me and pushing me to get it working, and school is about to start up. I MUST get this working soon, or I'm going to be f :censored: d |
