Re: ezgo pg2 engine wont run
Did you use a new piston and cylinder or, as you state, just new rings. If you just replaced just the rings then either your cylinder is non concentric or your head is cracked. Either way 60 psi is not going to hack it.

Re: ezgo pg2 engine wont run
Sadly that is your answer. Horizontal engines always wear the cylinder in a non concentric shape (egg shape). This is due to the weight of the piston on the bore and is exasperated by the stresses a 2 cycle places on the exhaust port. You need to get your cylinder re-bored or purchase a top end kit.
Sorry Dave |
