Free YTM200e!!!

[dear140]

hey guys i just got a 1984 ytm 200e on the side of the road free, the DEC (who the guy worked for) told him he needed a four wheeler now by law. he says all it needs is a carb which i just bought from a member on the site. anyway he says this sap has been on is tank plastic for 10+ yrs. how can i get this off i dont want to use too powerful of anything bc it might fade the decals. im not sure what to do. also is there any way to get scratches off plastics? and what do i use to make the plastics all polished? someone said oven cleaner? the axle seems a tad loose, just like wiggly how do i tighten it? thanks,cody.

There's allot of posts on polishing - use the search feature.

Oven cleaner removes paint from aluminum and such; I'd use a hair dryer or heat gun to remove decals.

You can make that stuff shine like new but the labor is intense and lengthy.

Great score on the free trike

oh i will its not too bad lookin either right? i took off the recoil and pryed her free bc it wouldnt pull through good pb blastered the hell out of it now it pulls easy. what should i do to trouble shoot ow? like see if it has spark n stuff. it was on the side of the road with a cub cadet mower n my dad called and wanted the mower cuz it worked fine, so he calls me up n says to bring down my trailer n truck n get it, so i did and saw the ytm, asked him how much he said free if dad buys the mower which he did so i brought the ytm home too.
