GreenStreak Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) cleaned out a barn for a guy. He said he wanted everything out of there scrap it all.... it has spark and good compression no fuel it's sat in that Barn for 20 + years. Track is beyond shot. I already see the fuel filter is plugged tight with green crap and I'm sure the carbs are plugged. so that's where we going to start, with the fuel system. I intend to groom my local trail that goes to the main trail it's about 4 miles long. with this Panther. Any of you guys here interested in home restoration of a old pile?

Gold Member Stephen Hawking Posted April 5, 2020 Gold Member Share Posted April 5, 2020 Won't be horrible if nothing major is messed up, gas tank is probably full of goo. Hopefully it was fogged before being put away or the crank bearings might be shot. Good luck with the rebuild. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teamgreen02 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 I'd put those carbs in one of those heated ultrasonic cleaners. Then rebuild the carbs with all new jets and gaskets. Should be able to find a used track that is better than what is on there. Should be a good machine for pulling around a drag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
