Lt80 Help

Piston::
Slight movement of the piston is normal, alot means it's piston/bore time. It sounds like it may be alot.
Rod/crank::
1mm movement on the rod/crank is OK, I think the rod/crank is fine from what you've explained.
Carb::
Any carb cleaner should work fine. To remove the needle seat there is a tiny phillips head screw. Only screw in there, should be a easy find.
I don't mess with that brass tube under the jet.

LT80 u have made me feel a thousand times better, i was dreading your reply about the big end but i am seriously pleased with what you've said, the piston has very little movement in the bore, i'll reassemble, clean that damn carb and she should be good to go.

LT80 thanks again, i can sleep well tonight
