I heard marbles rattling in the engine and it just stopped.

I think I will have to remove the engine from the bike in order to work on that. This is kinda fun, I'm learning as I go. :popcorn:

where did the chipped off teeth get to ?? did you find them, i don't know much about this kind of thing but i would think the teeth could be in there jamming something up if you did not find them.
