1985 Suzuki LT80 Repair

Hey all hopefully someone can help me out here. I found a 1985 lt80 laying around at the yard where I work and it’s missing some parts. Obvious things I noticed were carburetor fuel tank seat. Is there someone out there that has maybe a picture of one of these motors assembled so I can see what I’m working with and what I’m missing?  I ordered a new carb and got it installed to the existing cable but I’m not sure what else it needs as I’m not expert on these little engines. Any help would be greatly appreciated

There are two pilot holes on the top passenger side of the carb.  The front hole goes to a breather port that dead ends under the gas tank.  It just needs a small filter or piece of cloth taped on the end of the hose.  The other small 1/4" hole on the carb is toward the rear of the bike and it goes to the fuel petcock valve to the diaphragm port.  The larger lower opening hole is fuel into the carb and also goes to the fuel petcock to the outer connection where it says on/off/priScreenshot_20211109-170936.thumb.png.b8a81fee92890c51ce6cf4b7ca2952c7.png

      Greetings, 
      Have a 88 LT80 that been sitting for a couple years. Bought a new piston, cylinder and head. Installed these, rolled it over and it quickly locks up.  Took carb apart. It was full of what appears to be 2 cycle oil. Cleaned it, but keeps locking up and 2 cycle oil continues to seap from exhaust port.  When i installed new cylinder, I noticed crankcase was full of oil.  I'm now wondering if that oil is what's getting sucked up into cylinder.  Should there be no oil in crankcase?  If that the case, how is crank and rod lubricated?  Sorry, never worked on a 2 stroke. Thanks!

      I generally use Non Ethynol fuel in all my small engines. I just got back from the gas station and that fuel has really increased in price since last year, I will continue to use it, even though its north of 1.00 a gallon more. That seems minor compared to cleaning and repairing carbs every year. 
      I was just curious as to what others are doing in regard to gas in their quads, i know a lot of the newer ones are fuel injected which shouldnt pose a problem, but i have had lots of problems with rust and jell forming in carbs when using ethynol fuel.

      I Ran across this video today comparing an aftermarket to OEM Carb on Suzuki Vinson, thought it might generate some interest, it is quite long but informative.

      Hi, I am having issues with my TRX350D fuel pump.  It suddenly stopped running so I have replaced all the fuses and cleaned all the terminals.  I have fitted a new pump, fuel cut-off relay and rectifier.  Still nothing!!  The pump runs when attached to a battery.  The engine will start on the choke and the filter fills with fuel but it will  not rev and dies when the choke is closed. I have power to the relay but nothing at the pump black/white wire when cranking the engine.  Any ideas where to go from here would be very much appreciated!!
