Have you gone to Partsland and looked at the breakdown? That may help you a bit. And check ebay for a service manual. Should be able to find one pretty cheap.

The Partsland break down did help, but I am still confused. I'm going to try to work on it tonight and atleast tighten it back to where it was. Right now it is unrideable.

Here is a link for the Chain Adjustment procedure. Note that this is for a newer model. You will need to compress the rear end of your machine to get the right tension. If you can get a hold of a book it would help. I use a ratchet strap from the axle to the rear grab bar to hold the rear end compressed while I adjust the chain.

Thanks BigBlueScrammy. I have been doing exactly what that showed, but I just can't find anyplace to put a punch through the sproket into the housing. I can see a hole on the housing, but there is nothing on the sproket.

It's posible that it's an after market sprocket and there is no hole. Just use a pipe wrench or large channel locks to rotate the carrier. I added another pic to the Chain adjustment Page to show you the hole in the sprocket and hub. If you don't have it then just use the method above.

BigBlueScrammy: you are awsome. Thanks for that pic. Something was messed up with my sproket and it wasn't matching where the punch needed to go. I managed to ge tit to line up and in 5 minutes I was riding. Very simple once I figured out what I was doing. The only thing that concerns me a little is the carrier wheel on the botton part of the chain doesn't line up square to the chain, it is kind of at an angle. It was like when I bought it and doesn't seem to affect anything. There are wear marks on the wheels that go with the way the chain is going. Other than that it is perfect. Thanks again!
