I took off the head and then I saw a broken top of the intake valve laying on the piston.:mad: I took the top of the valve off of the piston and saw that it had ripped a hole in the piston and messed it all up. I also looked on the bottom of the cylinder head and saw it had some little dents and stuff where the valve was bouncing around and messed it up. Do I have to get a new head or do u think it would be ok?:confused:

Check your oil, and check your chain if it has one make sure it hasnt wedged, and pull your plug see what it looks like in there

This happened a few times to my 200x. Take off the head, and see if the timing chain came off. When it came off on mine, it took the guides with and wedged itself in the crank. I took it out, put the chain back on timed it, and it fired right up.

PULL THE SPARK PLUG OUT !!!!!!!!!!!!
And keep your face clear when you rip the cord----Bottom dollar says a quart of water spits out the plug hole when you rip it.
