? Orline Chicken Power Bike Engine

Recommended Posts

It could be the gearbox that's locked up. The old grease inside them gets hard as a rock.

You will need to disassemble the engine and gearbox to find out which it is.

Here's an older engine chicken Power thread which shows the parts. Yours is a newer engine so the gas tank would be different but the frame that mounts to the bicycle fork is basically the same

The starters are really fragile, forcing them to try & turn a stuck engine or gearbox will usually end up with a broken starter spring or cord.

If the engine is stuck, add a teaspoon of oil to the inside of the cylinder & leave it for a few days or a week, then remove the starter housing and try turning the engine with the flywheel, I've freed many this way, including one where someone stuck a hole through the piston trying to hammer it. :scratchhead:

Another thing to note, never unscrew the cylinder if the piston is stuck as a broken con-rod will be guaranteed.

 

The missing parts are the air cleaner assembly, gas tank, twist grip throttle control and the bike mounting kit.

 

$25 is a bargain, they normally sell for $100+ for an average condition one,  to a lot more for mint boxed ones.
