Boxes of basket case

I have two motors... One with kick start, the one I want to use, and a later one with only electric start. I was asked to post pics of the plugs for each but i don't remember who asked... I mean no disrespect. I will get it as I can see I will be on here quite a bit.

Here are the plugs for the kickstart motor from left to right....

And the other motor.... These also from left to right. I'm doubtful that these ever saw action though.... But I have now way to know for sure. They were in the motor finger tight where the others were torqued....

Personally I'd keep the kick start one. Saved my butt I don't remember how many times. :whistle:

if those were finger tight while it was running there would be carbon traces up the threads. Use the engine you want.
Don't fix it until it's broken.

You could do a leak down test to check the condition of them. That might make the decision easier.
