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! |
