j-17 gas engine
the top end of my j-17 is shot and the local dealer says the parts cannot be ordered and they have been discontinued, but they can convert it to a high compression engine. does anyone know how to do this?

Re: j-17 gas engine
well that is good news. my plan is to restore the cart from the ground up just wanted to get the engine issue solved first. it's a 1982 which from my understanding is a low compression engine. any leads to where I can locate the parts? thanks

Re: j-17 gas engine
Can't get the J17 cylinder, best bet would to have your cylinder bored. You can still get oversized piston/ring sets.

Re: j-17 gas engine
ok I have the cylinder at the machine shop now having it bored I know I need the connecting rod bearing for the crank because it has a lot of slack in it. are those still being sold for the j17?
