@Superninga13 I've rebuild 2 440's.My chetetah wouldnt idle and i found out it had a bad crank seal. It's real easy to see if they're bad. All you have to do is get the sled running and "nurse it" alive and keep it in that range. Then while someone is doing that spray a short small burst of starting fluid around both sides of the crank seals(behind the clutch and around the recoil starter). In doing so, if they're bad the engine will pick up RPM because the seal is sucking air into the crankcase
any tips on tuning that puma? haha i just cant get mine to idle for over 20 seconds =[

@rononyourmom Thanks! My dad's gonna try to get his old pumas running. Hopefully I can try one out someday!

@Superninga13 You know I'm not really sure. Superninga13 seems to know. I've never really worked on them before. Sorry! =\
