    Looking to rent/borrow tool

    I'm replacing the engine in my 'Doo, and can't seem to get the mag flywheel off using my universal puller. The factory tool P/N 295 000 106 looks like a very sturdy unit that will pull it off in seconds, but I don't want to wait several days for delivery. (Update: Tools have arrived.)

    Oil in Magneto Housing - '94 SPX

    I just bought a '94 SPX last week, and discovered that the charging system is not working. I checked the resistance of the charge coil and it is open. I pulled the cover off of the Magneto housing, and to my suprise got a bunch of oil coming out of the magneto housing. I'm assuming this is...
