thanks a lot guys! that was just what i needed. hopefully i will have my dirtbike back on the trails soon! jim sanders

i've got a 78 dt 175. i thought it was seased but i srayed wd-40 in the cylinder and i can kick it now. after about 20 kicks the kick starter won't go down. I believe the problem is the kick starter and not the engine. does anyone have a diagram of how to take apart a kickstarter? thanks jim sanders

haha i will definitely cross my fingers. thanks a lot guys. the only reason i didnt think it was seised was the fact that the kick starter didnt stop working until after a few more kicks after the bike was shut down. anyway, thanks again guys for your help. ~jim

I was riding my bike and through the woods in 3rd gear when the bike started to bog down. realizing this i down shifted and slowed down to first gear speed. still acting funny the bike just shut off on my while still rolling. I tried kicking it to get it started again but after about 10 kicks the kick starter would not go down and it is jammed. Any ideas of what is wrong? thanks in advance ~jim

hey guys, i've got a 1978 dt 175 enduro and the engine is bad on it. I plan on buying a new engine and swapping it with the one i have in now. Are the dt-175 engines compatible throughout any years? Meaning, can i use a 1974 dt-175 engine in my 1978 dt-175? Thanks in advance If anyone has a 1978 dt-175 2 stroke engine they want to sell just IM [email protected] ~Jim
