Nurse Julie:
You would definitely want to change the primary chain whilst you're in there.

Its a shame some butcher has been in there before you, stripping threads and whatever else.... hope you can sort it out. How cheap / easy are spare motors to get hold of? Might be worth investigating before spending loads on that one..... Good luck mate !

Not that easy around here. And i sleep better at night knowing what parts are in my engine :) But could see if i can find a new head in good shape. As of now, i've noticed at least 5 bolt holes with questionable threads.. Too many for my liking.

 Thats going to need the camchain horseshoe and other associated bits but the rest looks reasonable, look up timeserts and/or keenserts which are great as long as you have the metal around the hole to take them

Our old 'buddy' bikepusher has an original 'horseshoe' . Pretty rare part to find in original design and decent nick.
