howd you go with the starting issue?

previous posts explain that i got it running again.. suspected misaligned igniton pickups in the dizzy

still need some help with the reversal of the direction?

i got it sussed now sam..

AND its a blown headgasket from cylinder to water jacket... got combustion chamber gasses in the water and the system is getting massively pressurized. same thing happened with my old motor. dang.

f@$kING!

man youve had a bad run, hopefully its good after this!

Yes yes.. being broke don't help fingers crossed it all goes well without the head getting shaved.... head gasket is $90.

oh well i suspected the HG from day one... but it seemed to be ok. but i could def smell the gases from day one but it wasn't overheating. now it is bad..

 

i'm hoping the head is still ok. anyway should b done by wednesday then i can enjoy it.

head off.. taking it to a machine tmoz.. will have it back wednesday so by thursday arvo she'll be driveable.. yaya.

 

gasket was blown on cylinder 1 but on the upside everything inside looked in great knick.

 

 

you gonna use any fancy gasket or just a std one?

good news u found out what was wrong man

BHG's Love you long time.

f@$k u ryan lol it seems they do evan just a normal one still over 100 bucks. I have plans for another motor this one is pretty much the prove its reliable motor. Phil yeah stoked this is the last problem to take care of.

I wonder why it blew in the first place?

so do i... but it shouldn't happen again.. i guess maybe it was something to do with me having the motor in and out so much... also it sat around for 2 years... dunnu
