we have to running go devil powered jeeps in my family  :weee:... can you get more specific in what problems you are having?, is the started getting power, making bad noises, foot button linkage not adjusted?.... these motors are fairly robust and simple if you can keep the carb happy.

When I got my 46 it hadn't run for about 10 years, the first thing I had to do was remove the starter and take it apart and clean it. Once I got the starter turning then it was just a matter of cleaning the carb and replacing and reseting the points and she fired right up.
