I want to buy parts and start to do maintenance I have no service records

The 157QMJ is very common motor and there are parts galore for it. That is the motor I have on my HotRod Trike. Great little motor and you can mod the heck out of it.

The nice thing is if you're not sure or even if your motor blows up a brand new bolt in motor is only about $350.

Basically with these engines if you have to split the cases to do work, you're probably better off just buying a new motor.
