Hi

Looking for some help here.

I have a TKM Grice tuned 2 stroke engine, which doesnt seem to have any compression.

I can freely move the wheels, with the chain on and off. Which shouldn't happen as its direct drive.

The axel sprocket and engine sprockets are securely fitted.

I've taken the head off to have a look at the piston, and that seems in good nick, however im no expert.

The spark plug looks fine, and was running fine on Sunday afternoon at a test session at my local track.

My questions really are:
1. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this issue?
2. Should the kart start in its current condition?
3. What happens to the engine when it needs a rebuild?

Thanks in Advance
Steve
