Did you get it?
The qs still has a lot potential. Parts are easy to come by and buy since the demand is low. And the engine is a simple design that you can squeeze good power/tourq from.
The engine is nothing if not bottom heavy on torq. Does the phrase "nose light" ring a bell?
There are index marks on the kick lever, start shaft and kickstart gear. be shure they all line up.
When you put the cover back on be shure the kick lever ( all maks aligning ) is in its normal up or disingauged position. Before you torq every thing down check to be shure the kick lever locks at the point where it will stay and allow you to get your foot on it.

Torq everythig down and fire it up. If you hear a grinding noise with the lever all the way back in its disingauged position, the #2 gear is still tring to mesh.

Hope this helps.

What is your email, I have some pages that I scanned and sent to another guy. I can send them to you if you would like them, it tells you how to put it together and also has the diagram.

Make sure you get the smoking checked out, ours was smoking and then it blew up.
