Which parts to have on hand?

[kamik333]

In regards to an '83 ATC185S, what parts should I have on hand? CDI? Carb kit? What parts tend to go bad? Thanks...

Nothing ever goes bad since it's a HONDA! :beer But on a serious note....The only thing that I've needed to change is the pull start rope. Good little machines:p

make sure you have a spare plug,and a spark plug wrench, a small cressent wrench will never hurt either.If youre pull rope is in bad shape make sure you have a spare. Have some screwdrivers, maybe 2 sizes of phillips and 2 sizes of flathead. And that should work for anything you run into.

Great suggestions! But I was actually asking what parts I should have on hand at home. Is there some part or electronic component that tends to go South on the 185S?

ssmyers33, I know what you mean about Hondas. They start right up even after sitting for months and are pretty much bulletproof.

Thanks guys...

master link for the chain and flywheel key.

Now that's a thought. Would you know what the chain size is? I looked at a couple of OEM parts sites but could not locate the flywheel key. Any suggestions?
