Well, we finally got it done.
\nWhy did it end up halfway through? Well, here’s the thing\u2026
\nThe head cover has gaskets called washers, and we use eight of them on the head cover.
\nBut here’s the problem\u2014
\nThe count says eight, but there are only seven inside. Talk about a mix-up!
\nNow, the mileage is about 38,000 kilometers! Time to take a close look at what’s inside.
\nTo be specific, the intake side is completely worn, but honestly, you could say there’s barely any scuffing at all.
\nThere’s just a tiny speck or two, so there’s no problem.
\nWhen things are really bad, the contact is seriously harsh, and both the rocker arm and the cam lobe turn a burned color.
\nThe engine interior is very clean with minimal sludge. You can tell the owner has been diligent about engine oil changes.
\nThe cam chain has no slack and is in good condition.
\nAs for carburetor synchronization, since an FCR is installed, we can’t get negative pressure, so we modified the intake manifold
\nto create a port to draw it from.
\nIt was pretty rough at first, but now it’s clean and spot-on.
\nYou can also use the analog method (feeler gauges and such), but when you can get it with a meter, you know the right answer
\nis there, and that’s pretty nice.
\nThe engine damper is pretty worn down.
\nYou could say it’s appropriate for the mileage.
\nIt’s still a powerful engine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
