Buy a parts saw with a fried piston/cylinder or better yet a cracked/damaged crankcase. Something you're unlikely to damage on yours. Good to have a carb kit (at least gaskets/diaphrams) on hand, spark plugs, and either a set of points/condensor or a conversion module to eliminate the points on hand. Fuel and air filters are good too. Note: only the older 028's had points.
