what motor do you have

scottyb

You kinda need to have the piston and rings and know what the ring end gap is to be... then you can just measure what your bore should be. Are you doing the boring? If a machine shop is doing it just give them the jug, new piston and rings, (and the ring gap info, if available). They can handle it from there

Yes I'm taking it to a machine shop but I don't what the ring gap is

I don't know what it is on that motor either??????
I do know on an ezgo 1 cylinder 4 stroke it is .016 ... I don't know if that helps?

rotary

Thank you but do you know a way I can measure it?

What I am posting is from the Ezgo Engine manual for purpose of showing method to measure only, the manual for your cart may be available in the stickies.... hope this helps

You know the manual tells you the original engine specs if you know the year and motor you have.
