Thanks for all the help and info guys. I'm hoping to get on this little rebuild after i figure out my newest problem which i posted about... it seems to never end haha

It also sometimes randomly runs for a few minutes very weird where it misfires and stalls immediately once it reaches idle. It always goes back to normal eventually though... I dont know if this is a different problem I am just trying to help someone to diagnose this, its really confusing me...

OK new question, today I tried to start it to show my brother how broken it sounded so he could give me some input but it sounded normal.. normal by the way means it still clunks when trying to start it but it will start and run well. Then when it shuts off it clunks once. Why would it have...

To take the flywheel off before replacing the one way bearing will a normal gear puller work? I found a cheap 4 in. gear puller at my local store will that work the same way?

will this last as long as a replacement stock starter clutch?

How much can it be bored before needing any new jets or adjustments? I'm thinking about a wiseco piston too if that makes a difference

Today I was riding my '02 warrior with a friend and it was riding fine for a while.. then he said he stalled it in first and from that point on it clunked realllly loud and would start but would not idle right and sounded bad. For a while it would clunk sometimes when starting and almost always...

Should there be any play in the cam chain ideally?

Are they worth getting replaced? Will it just get worse and is it bad for the engine at all? I'm worried the local shop will charge me a ridiculous amount for labor

Also what is replacing the valve seals like? Is that a difficult fix or does it take a while?

Ohh ok that makes sense, are there any symptoms of a cam chain that may be wearing down? It seems to be in great shape but I don't know what to look for besides the obvious damage or it bring really loose

Why would the cam chain need to be replaced? It's still tight and looks like its in very good condition.. I don't know if that means anything though. If the cylinder walls are damaged and it needs to be bored does that automatically mean I need carb adjustments or jets or anything?

My '02 warrior has a leaking base gasket which after months of being ignored now needs to be replaced. Since I'm going in there, I'm wondering what else I should do to prevent future top end repairs... I'm not very experienced but I'm pretty sure it needs rings because it's smoking more and more...

Thanks, are the yamaha replacement gaskets the most reliable? and how big of a job is it to replace it?

Over the past few months the gasket between the cylinder and the crankcase on my '01 warrior has developed a leak that seems to be slowly getting worse. It started as a small oil spot on top of the crankcase but over time (and I don't ride very often or for long) it has gotten a lot bigger, now...
