Re: Help! Bike cranks fine but won't start.

A decent sloped driveway, with some runoff area at the end should suffice, especially if you have someone who can give you a bit of a push start.

Re: gas tank compatability?

Re: First 100+ Miles, First Trip to the Gas Station

Under the circumstances, it might be a good idea to give it a shot of carb. cleaner, just as a vaccine, of sorts. Seafoam is good for that.
