read your other post before you go wasting your $ on stuff that will not fix your problems.repairing trikes should not be a guessing game, if you diagnos the problem the first time, you will be happier in the end

ok......i just wanna kow if it will fit an 85 if you dont know then you didnt have to replie because if all that will fit a 85 i might buy the tecate because i wont be spending alot of money

[dreamintheR]

the owner suggested it may be the coil not me , read my other post n find out why i thought it might be stator/flywheel and coil

[TeCaTe_MaN]

it really sounds like a compression or a carb/reed problem...when it's the stator it will either start and run like $h!t or it wont start at all...i had one stator go out on me and it would still make a timing light light up, but as soon as i got a new stator in it it ran perfect...get it, invest a couple hundered in it and have a sick bike

[dreamintheR]

alright but how do you fix low compresion???

[NICKG]

new rings is a start. electrical stuff is usually pretty consistent...it either works or it doesn't. normally as a coil heats up it then goes bad, if it was bad cold it would never get running, oh any coil, stater,cdi and flywheel for 84-87 tecates interchange also 87-88 tecate 4 have these same parts. have you ever ridden a 2 stroke ? what about a trike? if not make sure you have good insurance...you will get hurt

[TeCaTe_MaN]

yea, if this is your first trike, take it easy and get usedto it, these bikes have enough power to flip themselves right over backwards with the rider on them...

[dreamintheR]

i wont get hurt ok? im use to banshees and i own a 2-stroke dirtbike , its not as fast as a tecate but its 2-stroke ive own a trike trailprotrailpro it was a act110 then i sold it then i bought a brand new 02 xr80 sold that after 2 yrs (sold recently) now i have a kx80 that im use to and i ride my cousins shee evertime i go over his house which is every weekend

Well just a FYI for you.....you can never have too many electrical parts for a tecate. If they will work snag them up and keep them for spares. Lord knows you will need them in the near future..........peace

[dreamintheR]

yea i was plainin on it lol oh and eh to cure bad compression do i get new piston n rings n make sure it fits snug in the jug? if the pistons to ssmall then i think i know what id have to do :D

[tecatemantodd]

That Tecate is going to be faster than the banshee unless the banshee is built. That and the fact that it's a 3 wheeler mean you need to take the advice given here and be careful. I said the same crap as you before I broke my collar bone......I had ridden all kinds of little trikes too.....lol
