Clean the carb, clean and oil your air fliter, and stuff in new ngk plug.

Re: help getting spree started!!
You should ensure you have the oil pump hooked up and the primed before starting... just my opinion.

Re: S.O.S please help
Dude... it burns out the carbon build up. The pilot circuit is not the main jet.... it is the small copper tube adjacent to the main jet circuit. Do me a favor and watch the video I posted.... it shows how to shine the light and see the pilot is clear (the tiny light next to the bright light). If it...

Re: S.O.S please help
You need to clean the carb.... did you see the youtube link? Full disassembly... it is not hard. You need to have a carb cleaner too (any local auto store) http://hondaspree.net/wiki/index.php5?title=Carburetor_Cleaning http://hondaspree.net/wiki/index.php5?title=Carburetor_Cleaning_Picture_Guide

Re: S.O.S please help
If it starts you most likely are good on compression... so no worries there, it is just good to have a baseline. I would think at around 8000 miles, it might be a good idea for hone on the cylinder and some new rings. The fuel filter is inside the tank above the petcock... you will have to remove th...
