brand new engine wont start?????????

<< < (2/2)

HodaddyB:
Sorry to revive a somewhat dead thread, but since '87 owners have been chiming in on this one, I'd like to confirm that the later ('88 & up) pistons will indeed work w/ no caveats.

I found out today that '87 pistons are no longer available from Kaw, which is probably something everyone else here knows.

Are there any other later model engine parts that can be used, or perhaps HAVE to be used due to obsolescence?

I believe there is a rod kit available from Hot Rods or Moose, my local dealer told me that the stock '87 rods are on backorder.

I appreciate any help

500freak:
it ended up being my cdi.  i thought they either worked or didnt, guess i was wrong.
