New here, I put together the bike with basicaly no instructions. Installed chain but can not get to rotate free. The pedals are locked up and nothing turns unless I pull the cord. It is the engine with pull start and centrifugal clutch, Please help! Also do I need to put oil in the bottom, below carburator? Looks like this is a fill hole?

You won't need to add oil to the bottom end, it's a two stroke.
Have you started it yet? I am not overly familiar with the c-clutch kits, maybe someone who has one will chime in shortly.

Sorry Joe , I meant the gear box...think it needs oil.. did not recieve any instructions with this kit and then they told me to go on line and down load instructions that were not specific to this engine. I call and the girl tells me to sit on the bike and start it..WHAT ??...the pull cord feels like its gonna break....now what?
pedals are not hitting, there is no lever to pull in clutch its Centrifugal Clutch please check it out

Okay in the picture it shows a clutch lever and in the description it say clutch cable.So it's suppose to have one.It won't work without one.Hope you have it.Show a picture of your bike where you are at now or video and people will help you along on here as well as I will.
Trying to post some pics...this engine has no clutch lever like the pic...When you give it gas the Centrifugal Clutch expands and grabs to engage..
MY PEOPLE !! did anyone here ever have a go-kart or mini-bike when they were kids that had a centerfugal clutch? there is no lever to pull in...you give it gas and when the shaft starts spinning the pads in the clutch housing start to spread out and you go !!! THERE IS NO LEVER !!!!!!!!!!
I see exactly where WAN is going. How do you start the engine if it has no lever to pull. So don't get mad at him, he's trying to help you out. You're not giving him any good information, any pictures, then you're catching an attitude when he's trying to tell you what to do.
Take pics and post them. Normally, on a regular 2 stroke, you'd pull the clutch lever, pedal the bike untill you reach a decent speed, then release the clutch to where the rear wheel drives the motor for a second (like when you dump the clutch on a stick shift car to start it).
When you do that, you start the bike. With the clutch lever out (not depressed) you shouldn't be able to rotate the engine (or bike) freely.
Like I said, post pics or make a video of what you're talking about. And it's not polite for a NOOB with 6 posts to catch an attitude with an ELITE member who's trying to help the NOOB.
This is a fun sport/hobby. WAN is trying to give you his help.

I whole heartily apologize if I offended anyone, Its just my frustration with bike berry, they refuse to help me with this engine. Now the pull start cable broke while trying to get everything working....sending it back..thats what I get for buying cheap Chinese crap. Sorry for bothering you guys.
oh and ..why would I lie about the clutch lever? There is none. You pull start the engine...and as the RPM's go up the clutch expands and goes. Problem is the clutch is already grabing in neutral.....THERE's NO CLUTCH LEVER !!!!!
Mike
this video shows you where the cable goes on this 2 stroke when you pull the clutch lever the bike will move freely and you can pedal the bike to a little speed then let the clutch out and it will start the engine or you squeeze the clutch lever and use the pull start.check it out.

My engine does not have that clutch lever coming out of the top where the sprocket is. There is no hole for one eather.
