Wow, you guys are awesome! I’m already learning a lot.

I’ll place an order for all the tune up parts today, might even swing by Monument Car Parts in Livermore.

Hopefully they have a carb rebuild kit in stock too.

The most pressing item currently is the heavy gas fumes in the garage. It’s overwhelming and the wife isn’t thrilled about that. I need to address that first before anything else. If anyone has any tips on common sources for this, I’ll be sure to look into those. For now I can tell that the gas cap rubber is pretty brittle and cracked. Additionally, there looks to be a bit of fuel puddling between the carb and intake as mentioned above.

Oh, and if I don’t have any optional gearing, what’s default ratio?

And before I forget, oil capacity for the 250? I’ll pick up some 10W-30
