Direct bolt on Mikuni for my engine.

Great read! If you translate motor bicycle to Japanese and add the translation to the “add to this search” function of google images with an image of that honda bike it will pull up japanese results only of the A-type not seen in the American search results.

No actually my phone won‘t navigate the way back machine. I translated “lucky-go” into Japanese and stuck that into the Facebook search bar. It pulled up results from the man who owns the cafe and did the online page about Masuda iron works. He did get that little two stroke lucky go running...

screenshots of the defunct page were uploaded to Facebook in 2020 also a video of the little 2 stroke engine running. Exactly like my engine!

There are two and four stroke versions of the lucky bike.

So they removed the pullstart and maybe milled off the snail housing and removed the cooling fan on the snail housing side? There is a bearing in the case on that side BEHIND the flywheel so even with the aluminum snail case and cooling fan missing the crank is still supported in the case on...

Ok no the lucky flywheel even looks the same maybe it just doesn’t have 3 flathead screws and bolt on pull start like mine?

Pictures 1-3 it’s possibly a variant of my engine without the massive front snail shroud and a slightly different flywheel? Picture #4 is my engine

I have completely moved on from AI and google images (In American) I have two pages open. Google translate and google images. I have tried translating keywords (tohatsu) (Ww2 two cycle) etc into Japanese and then adding those translations into google images with a picture of the engine/gearbox...

My local Napa and many many stores I looked for any spark plug that would work. It was a small vintage style shop in the next town over I stumbled upon that only had a few plugs in stock. All ngk and compared to the plug in it the guy said this was the closest heat range. Ctu’s pop up on...

I have ordered an H40 carburetor to swap onto it and have a much better idea of how I should be running it. I’ll just see how it runs. Most of the carburetors I have tried on it so far worked enough but were just not even close to being right. I still fear damaging it by running it. I’ve told...

I was wrong pushing the funnel to the down position and locking the twist ring does in fact completely close off the passage. I will pour a hefty amount of some thinned down oil in the funnel let it drain into the crankcase and then turn the funnel “off”. Add a good bit to the dropper for the...

Fuel exits the carburetor and hits the intake port. Goes through the intake port and enters the bottom of the cylinder while the piston is at TDC.. Fuel travels through the cylinder then through pistons port into two ports along the side of the head that dumps it into the cylinder above the...

Two flywheel ”marks” 180 degrees apart. With the piston at the very bottom of the cylinder the flywheel matches up directly to the flywheel mark with the “T” With the piston at TDC the flywheel mark without the t lines up directly? So the factory marked the “T” on the wrong side of the...

The only way to drain the block I see is a spring loaded cap at the very bottom of the block. The funnel is above the crank weights and is absolutely for pouring oil that would drip off the weights into the bottom of the round crankcase. I do not know if there is a seal that is bad and the...

Ok update this funnel was stuck! It took some tapping and persuading but it finally popped loose and pivots. There is no off/on position for the funnel. You could pour thinned down oil right into the crankcase while the engine is running? does the piston port mean it can run fine with the...

I have to look back through but whoever said it was a funnel for crankcase oiling was correct! It’s a funnel to a small hole that exits right above the crank weights! The oiler on the other side is self explanatory. Thank you all I feel more comfortable thinning out some motor oil for the...

Ok so I am still unsure of how the oiling system works. It has the oil dropper cap on one side and a funnel looking thing on the other side of the block with a spring loaded block drain cap. If I’m supposed to be thinning motor oil with fuel and pouring it in the cap AND down the funnel to oil...
