Abstract
A structure for blocking an oil supply hole of a kick idle gear bearing portion is provided in an internal combustion engine of a type wherein a kick starting mechanism is removably mounted for transmitting an input from a kick arm to a crank shaft by way of a kick idle gear rotatably supported by a counter shaft. When the kick starting mechanism is removed and a self stating mode is set, an oil supply hole of a bearing portion in the state that the kick idle gear of the counter shaft is removed is blocked by a blocking member having a slip preventive function. The blocking member includes an insertion portion inserted in the oil supply hole, and an abutment portion integrally formed with the insertion portion, which is abutted on the outer peripheral surface of the bearing portion.
