I went picking during the annual fall cleanup trash day. one of the things I found was this ratty mid 80s suzuki 230 atv. lets put it up on the bench and see if it can be brought back to run.
one mans junk is another mans treasure…

I just can't understand how some people throw vehicles like this in the trash
Even if I was stupid rich and wasn't a tinkerhead myself, I would definitely not throw it out, but maybe give it to a kid for free so they can learn how to fix it and ride it
But in this world nothing is free and you'll find ATVs in this condition for hundreds of dollars
That's why I don't get how you find them for free
That kicker ain't deep enough, you get like half a throw.
Omg, he wasted an hour here
Just for future reference, use a close hanger on something like this to hold the compression release open untill it starts then release it.
This is just Click bait! Those who think this man is a genius think again. Forcibly turning over that motor was a very stupid thing to do, the surface rust accumulated on the cylinder wall and debris from the piston would have scored the lining of the cylinder wall and piston, destroyed the sealing surface of the rings thus clogging up and or collapsing the oil rings. Even though he got the thing running it's going to blow a heap of smoke and inevitably seize which he will deceive you by not showing it or he'll just sell it and rip some poor bunny off.
For the job to be done properly the top end needed to be dismantled, inspected, cleaned and put back together with even the old gaskets if need be for testing.
Young people getting into repairing these things should stay clear of this man as he is not a good example!
Best channel ever, lots of love from Poland.
The bikes were free but the hernia getting them on the truck is gonna cost ya lol. Nice score
I had one of those had lots fun with it then believe it or not I was able to trade it for a Honda 350x because the guy needed my four wheeler because he got hurt really bad could barely walk anymore so he couldn't use the 350 and I had the time of my life with that 350 if you can ever get one definitely do it because it's a blast
Catching up on old videos and came across this one. I always thought it wouldn't be a musty1 video without the mice lol 😂🤣🤣🤣.
I have a 1986 Suzuki LT230 wiring Problem
It was in a flood at some point There’s algae and water in the fluids. That would explain why it’s locked up. Someone probably took it too deep and got it stuck and left it there for a while. All it takes is water in the exhaust to do that
When he was pulling the atv reminded me of the time my mom was taking me to the dentist 🤣🤣😁
i like that you work and talk to viewer so we understand what you are doing that means a lot
