No spark is most likely cdi or the pickup coil. However sometimes my zong just doesn't like heavy rain and will shut off and not start. Then when it dries out it will start right up and run fine.

It took me all of an hour to learn and true my first wheel, it's not rocket science. Once you know how to do that you can now lace and true your own rims which is incredibly useful.

That sounds kind of like the NGK R's (I think). I have nothing bad to say about them at all. And I'll buy them when they are out of the cheap ones. The way the electrodes are placed it doesn't shroud...

Multi-electrode plugs are a gimmick. The spark can only jump across one gap at a time, any more electrodes are just shrouding the spark from the fuel/air mix which defeats the purpose.

Do your bearings fig snugly against the front axle bolt? I ordered a set of 6201-2RS bearings for the front of my sierra. However now I'm noting they fit loose against the axle. The 6201-2RS has an...

It's a sierra just like spuds. I didn't want to bother him with a PM, I figured he'd see this. And/or maybe someone else that had done the swap.

Replacement front rim for Zongshen Sierra (zs200gy-2).

In case anyone may be wondering who would win in a fight between a zong and a rock wall. The wall wins, hands down. But the zong made a valiant effort to topple it! However my front rim is only...
