ok so my blaster seems like it doesnt have any compression when i try to kickstart it. when i first bought it it ran like a scolded dog then i started having problems with it not shifting past second gear and then it started to lose compression and now it wont start at all. i took the head off expecting to see the piston obviously messed up but i couldnt see anything wrong with it besides that it wiggled from side to side a good bit. i assume i may need to rebuild the top end but im not really sure, any help would be very much appreciated, thanks!

compression test it that will tell you if you need a rebuild,if you dont see anything visually.
also you are suppose to replace head gasket when you remove it,or anneal it if money is tight

It would be wise to read up on here or you will be posting this thread often. Learn about jetting and leak testing. An air leak to lean jetting will wear out a top end fast. It's the mistakes that many people make. A 2 stroke is NOT something you just jump on and ride anytime. You have to keep a check on them and tune the carb for upgrades and temp.
