sorry to hear your bike got nicked but from what you have said I suppose it was bound to happen. Trail bikes are a prime target for the 'yoofs' whoo would love to rag it around off road (and on the road too), you may get it back but I expect it will be damaged unless youre lucky. Im surprised to read that youre prepared to leave it overnight without locking it though!

There should be a little free play in the lever, you will see a cable adjuster at the lever, undo the lockring and screw in the adjuster (Clockwise) until you have a little free play then lock it again ...hopefully then all will be well ...Paul

This is what I do to undo the locking nut on my DT175MX Pete. Then use the correct flywheel puller. ...Paul

To clean the tank of any loose rust or previous coatings, remove the fuel tap, fill 1/3 full of sharp gravel, like the stuff in fish tanks and redplace the cap and then shake it for all youre worth... testing the seals needs a: either a running engine or b: pressure testing equipment...see my post on pressure testing ...Paul -

They were developed to prevent hydraulic lock incidents and wrecked engines...unlikely I know but they stop the unlikely
-
Not a great idea, vacuum taps were a step in the right direction, why would you want to do this...having problems with yours?
-
Dont need to take the engine out and apart, just do a compression test of the two engines.

+1, there are two filaments in the bulb, have a look with a magnifying glass you may see one broken, if you have a multimeter test them both you should get a reading from each solder point to the metal casing.

Hi Jeb Try unplugging the kill switch and the ignition key switch then check again. Try another plug, Check the resistance values of your magneto source coil = 420 ohms +- 10%............Brown to chassis Check the resistance of the magneto pulse coil = 12.4 ohms +- 10%...........White / Red to chassis Check the resistance values of the ignition coil, Primary = 1.0 ohm =- 15%, secondary = 5900 ohms +- 20% ...Paul
