Re: Ezgo 2 cyl robin
Once the motor is on the work bench, maybe 30 minutes? Not long...
It can probably be done with the motor still installed, but I like to be able to get to things without being a contortionist trying to squeeze into odd places to look at timing marks, access bolts, etc. 8 bolts, a couple belts, and a couple connectors and you can have the engine on the bench in 30 minutes. Less if it's a workhorse with the dump bed. I leave the carb all connected, and just remove the 2 10mm nuts holding the carb on, set the carb (still connected to fuel lines and etc.) up next to the gas tank. Saves you having to re-prime the fuel pump. If you're pulling the head anyway, I would also recommend replacing the valve seals while it's off. And inspect the intake valves for wear, they're pretty common to wear out. |

Re: Ezgo 2 cyl robin
In my machinist days, the device that clamped the work piece, and bolted to the table of the mill, we called a “ vice”. Couple of old-timers from New England referred to it as a “shoe”.
Then when stuff is abbreviated it gets nuts. Ad for a car for sale - “ R & H “ should mean “Radio & Heater” in one case it meant “ Rattles & Heaves” . . . . |

Re: Ezgo 2 cyl robin
During my working days for a living I have removed the cylinder head on a 2 c without pulling the engine and even replaced the timing belt in cart.
It takes me much longer than 30 minutes to R&R the cylinder head when it is sitting on a workbench but I trip over air hoses and change glasses 5 times |
