Eton chain tensioner
.
To view how to install the HPD Chain Tensioner and modify its factory guard, surf: - Press Here -
For more info on the HPD tensioner, surf: http://www.hpd-inc.com/misc.htm
To determine which HPD tensioner that would bolt directly onto your E-Ton 90's Swing Arm, you may want to call them before ordering.
Hope this helps...

Due to the design of the 2 stroke mini engines (which are scooter engines made for dry pavement), I haven't found a means to keep the water 100% out of their stator area. If you completely seal the stator, water won't get in, neither will air and over time, your engine's cylinder will over heat. For our Pred-90, I have implemented a few "tricks" that helped for us. They are:
1 - Sealed the large gap at the bottom of the engine case. For pictures, surf: - Press Here -
2 - Clean / Protect the stator assembly coils. For cleaning, I use - Spray on Brake Cleaner - And to protect it after its dried,
I use - Press Here - For us, these "clean & protect" one a year to reduce heat build up on the stator bobbins does work.
This might work for you too.
NOTE: When spraying the sealant, don't apply to the stator's pickup sensors / contact area. Need to ensure these items stay very clean and dry.
The best way to keep mud / crud out of the open stator area is ensure water stays BELOW the running board (as per factory recommendations). If mud / crud is your passion, you may have to "trade here in" and get a 4 stroke. They have sealed trannys and sealed Stator systems. I was looking at the Yamaha Blaster the other day. Cool looking machine. Bet that youth machine would take lots of water / mud abuse. Perhaps the "much better in the water / crud" Yamaha Blaster is your young rider's next ATV upgrade?
