So we tried to kick my 200X, it didn't budge. My dad said it either needs the cluth engaged to start, or that it is seized. We en't find out if it needs the clutch engaged as we do not have the luth lever assembly. So I'm trying to get help from you all. Does the clutch need to be engaged to start it up? Also how many gears does this thing have? And are there any down (i.e. 1 up 4 down)?

1 down 4 up and clutch doesnt need to be engaged. Its most likely seized up

Think there could be anything else wrong with it, a little easier to fix? How many litres of diesel would I need to fill it with to unseize it? I work at a gas station out of town, so I could pick it up tomorrow.

Likely needs a new topend if it's seized. 200xs are 1 down 4 up for 1st gen and 1 down 5 up for 2nd gen, between 1st and 2nd is neutral.

Put it in neutral, it should roll free. If the kicker does nothing it could be jammed or seized. You can try diesel fluid or Mystery oil but unless it sat for years after it was running, most likely it will need tearing down.......

Shouldn't take more than a couple tablespoons in the plug hole , let it sit in there, or it's not gonna budge.

Good luck :)

Well the guy raced it a while ago at his local tracks, it was all together at the beginning of the summer running I believe, he put a new top end on it, gave us the old one with the old piston. It rolls in neutral.

Take the spark plug out, does it turn over then? If not then try the mystery oil like Dirtcrasher suggests.

*Not sure what all is in Canada* But Walmart has it as well as the auto parts stores. Comes in a red bottle.

Canadian Tire maybe? Otherwise I'd prolly have to use deisel or go on a road trip.

Not sure you'll find mystery oil here in Canada... I never saw some anywhere.
But wouldnt PB blaster or WD40 work aswell?

Sure coke in the engine is ok? I've never used WD40 "inside" of anything. It may have sat for the summer with the plug out of it... :S
