compression

[Schmidt888]

Another question about my 01 blaster. One day i was riding and ran out of gas. So me and my cousin,who i was riding with, got gas and put it in. But then something weird happened i noticed when i went to kick it i could just set my foot on it and the started would go down easy. Then i would let it come back up and it would kick normally. Now i have no compression, then i let it come back up and ill be able to start it no problem.I donk know what it is. Please help

Third sentance i ment starter not started

So you have compression the first kick, but the second kick you don't? Thats odd. You probably blew a head gasket, but the only way to know for sure is to leak test it first

you sure the kicker is engaging?

Usually the other way around and would i know it i blew the gasket cause it runs fine when it starts?

I never thought of that but that could be it. And if it is do you know how to fix it?

I'd pull the clutch cover off carefully and see if the starter is positioned correctly!

Watch and listen to video, it starts at 5:13- perfect analogy-
