Moped Rebuild Started

Feeling a little motivation with the snow starting...and getting all the stuff done around the house...I did the first necessary set for my moped engine rebuild: remove the motor.  It only took about 30 minutes after disconnecting all the fuel, chain, wires, cables, etc.  I also drained the transmission fluid and decided it is waaaay too cold to keep working on it in the garage so I am going to try and work on it inside on my Foosball table that has plywood thrown over it and a sheet.... We normally fold clothes on the sheet, but I will make sure to remove that and get a garage towel so I don't make a mess inside.  The motor is caked with scroop (scum + crud + goop) from the riding, so I need to clean that off as well before I begin....parts should arrive Monday and I hope to have the time to break open the engine and get it ready for the rebuild.  Have a good one!

Best,
Andrew Buck Michael
