missing the whole assembly, I will post a photo here soon.

for the brake, fine using the clutch if the engine is running, but if you are trying to start on a hill and it is not firing up, you are going to go up or down the hill. (assuming we do not start with the clutch engaged) . ditto in a running then stalled situation.

the carby etc not working well and the only way was to squirt some petrol into the carb air inlet (cover and filter off), which got me home in 'limp mode'. I had to lodge a car ramp under the rear tire when trying to get up the hill by the fuel injection method after 20 attempts of going part up the hill, (20m 5 degree slope) stalling, then sliding down again. it was sad , I was saying 'loser' out loud every time. (the belt was on wrong was another issue at the time , so not enough power, then stall, then the heartbreaking slide back.) but I got there. maybe a modified block of wood at the back with a lever to go down behind the wheels, like in the good old horse and buggy days when hauling them up a hill with a counterweight like a tree coming down the other way , and a long piece of rope.

pretty sure I will be cleaning the valves soon. parts have been ordered.
