Found out why my motor won't run correctly, spitting out the intake....

valves were tight on this cylinder...

took off the rocker shaft to replace an O-ring...rockers won't move on the shaft????

Turns out the rockers are galled to the shaft!!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

So for sure this was holding the intake valve open....

anyone have a set of rocker shafts? at a minimum I need 1 shaft and 2 rockers...I am running swivel feet so need a 1.7? rocker???

If anyone has a complete set of 8 I will take them all...please contact me ASAP so I can get this monster running....

PM or email to hberwald@stonyfield.com...if you want, you can call to 603.370.1467.

thanks!

Well, it looks like I can save the rocker arms.....both had a burr, ball of metal built up at the bottom of the arm....????

Hey, it help calm me down..!!!
