Tore the motor down
Well bit it and pulled and tore down engine this morning . Head gasket was blown in pieces , piston and cylinder are pretty scored up .
Guess time for a parts order . Here are some pics of the piston , jug and the parts list. If you know of a cheaper place to order please let me know since I am fixing this one for that guy with cancer he doesn't have a ton to spend (of course I am doing free labor ) |

Re: Tore the motor down
There isn't one. You have to use sealer.
I also sent you a pm. |

Re: Tore the motor down
Also when people say they used locktite on the crank seals , are they just using the regular thread locktite or something different? Wanna make sure they come out again

Re: Tore the motor down
Some use blue but I use red and stake the case in 3 places center punch or small chisel. Some use yahmabond or case sealer from a motorcycle shop I use antaerobic sealer from O'reillys.

Re: Tore the motor down
Thanks racin161 . Will give that stuff a try you get at Oreily.
Will def stake the case this time . The more I tear this thing down the more I find . Removed the starter/generator and a bolt was broke and soldered back on , one that goes through end cap and made to brush holder . That is a $50 part the guy really can't afford after all these other parts hitting the $400 mark . Wandering if I can drill the bolt out and solder a new one to the brush holder tab . If not I might have to just buy the part for him |

Re: Tore the motor down
I used a green that was supposed to be super high strength, and staked my seals the second time around.
