When I cleaned it up a bit and popped the covers off I found the starter pinon had completed seized in the extended position and lodged in the driven gear. Which explains a lot. Took off the clutch, driven gear, and variator. Cleaned out all the corrosion and crap in there. Tonight I will swap in a mint starer pinon I have as well as parts I had from another af16. The clutch is a rusty mess. The variator was completely frozen with the rollers destroyed. So I am just gonna do a complete transplant of variator/clutch, and deal with cleaning up the originals later. If anything got a complete af16 cheap and other stuff to part out. Win/win if you ask me

New 99 elite.
I had to drive a bit to pick it up...but for $50 it was worth it. No title but not the end of the world. Pretty complete all in all. I should have snapped my own pics when I got it home but I was too amped up to start tearing into it lol. Somebody tried to paint the whole thing which is peeling off the polyethylene and in parts off the abs. I really wish I would have snapped pics of the carb it was encased in grime and was the size of a softball with hoses coming out. Guy said it wouldn't start all of the sudden and it has sat since July. Kickstart was frozen and he had taken the starter off.
