I don't know... I couldn't find one.
There are little round caps on the top of the engine on the front and back. Under those caps are the rockers and valve stems. The first step is to get the piston at the top on the COMPRESSION STROKE. Not the exhaust stroke. Its up to you to figure out if you have it right because there are no marks to tell you. Once you have the piston at the top on the compression stroke, you then grab the intake rocker and see if its loose a little bit. If it is, then its probably ok. If its not, that is your problem. You have to make it a wee bit loose. Not a lot, just a little bit. .001-.003 to be exact. Usually, you use a feeler gauge for this. Too tight and it won't start when cold and won't run right. Too loose and it will run ok, but just won't have all the power it could have.

I didn't see anything on ebay. THe 250 engine will be HARD to find! A 230 engine will be easier. You have to keep looking until one pops up. Email some of the sellers that sell 230 stuff n ask if they have one.
