engine assembly question
I am in the process of rebuild my 2-stroke 1990 ez-go enguine, when I put the piston into the cylinder its very tight and hard to move by hand, i have rebuilt v-8 truck engines before and the pistons move more freely.
So i guess the question is how hard should the piston be to move inside the jug once assembled?? in order to move the piston up or down i have to tap it with a wooden handle of a hammer any help would be great, i would love to get this back together today |

Re: engine assembly question
thanks pizzaaker.
we figured it out, there was a little bur on the piston were the bottom ring rides, we cleaned it out and re-assembled, now it moves smooth and easy, I should be up and running in a few hours |
