  1. hi woody,do you know the thickness of the original ossa mar central case gasket....my old one mic'ed at 0.025 inch on average ....and a new  vintco gasket mic;ed at 0.030  inch...im trying  to avoid shimming changes due to a thicker gasket

  2. hi feet up fun..thankyou for your attention to my mar upper shock mount delema....so,i fixed the problem by grinding ( very carfully) the 15mm upper shock mounts down to 12 mm....no more problem-ever!

      OK good. I wonder why they did that. The KT250 is similar with 14mm at the top and 12mm at the bottom

  3. im trying to fix the kick start on my 348 montesa trial.......i wrote to "feetupfun" about the problem....can you have a look there....im new and just learning how to use this site.......

  4. hello,im looking for help figuring out how to fix my 348 trial kick start issue....it kicks through like mush,like its not properly ingaging.when i got it a few months ago ,i cleaned the carb and got it going.even then about every third or forth kick would not engage ,just kinda mush through the kick.now thats all it does....even though i have installed a new clutch,cable,and original type levers,and a new 10mil plunger......someone else had this problem on here,did he ever find the solution?.....im using amsoil 80 dirt clutch oil in the clutch..the new clutch is a TJT it comes with two more plates than the original montesa pack,so i left them out.......some one really otta write a book on these things.

      it was the oil.............10w30 wet clutch oil is what i needed.i didnt know ther was a difference.i had car type 10w30 motor oil in my clutch!    i cleaned all the plates,and with the propper oil,everything is as it should be.....
