2 cycle rebuild help

[frodrummer]

Wanting to find out if there has been a previous thread on 2 cycle complete rebuild. I am going to be diving into my rebuild soon. The project seems pretty straight forward, but I would like to find a step by step or something close to it. I will be purchasing the rebuild kit below. As easy as it might be, I don't want to reinstall and fire it up, only to find that I missed something simple. Any help would be appreciated.

Here are a few tips:


Diss-assembly

-You will need a 2 hole puller to pull off the flywheel- do not use a jaw type puller- use the bolt holes close to the shaft.

-you can make a simple puller to remove the clutch. You may need to buy a bolt that matches the threads in the end of your clutch hub.

- you can pull the cases apart with a 3 hole steering wheel puller and some common taps- search for my post on "cheap and safe way to pull 2 stroke engine case apart" I have pics there

Assembly-

1. Install the piston in the cylinder before you connect the piston to the rod- it is much easier to squeeze the rings and get it in straight if it is not hooked up to the rod. Be sure to get the holes in the piston skirt facing the correct direction

2. I replaced my crank bearings last week- the new bearings were easy to drive on with a hammer and blunt chisel (I was worried that I would need a press). You can get the crankcase halves together without a press as well- just make sure it goes together even and use a block of wood instead of a chisel to tap the case. Use an oil resistant sealer sparingly on the case halves

Kyerik, could you link that post? I did a search, and this post came up as the only one. I'm very curious on a complete rebuild on this engine too.
