Got around to an engine tear-down. My son was given a 2006 Suzuki AT-Z250. The engine ate a piston and cylinder.

Have a new Cylinder and Piston - fishing out all of the metal in the crankcase and gearcase. So far I have about 1/2 of the pieces. Trying NOT to crack the case.......May have to if I cannot get some more big chunks.

Inside bearings, gears, mechanisms are pristine, perhaps a couple hundred hours at most on the engine - worth saving.

... and for the coup de gras, grabbed an old rusty, faded paint cargo rack that my brother gave me ... washed & dried it and hit it with Rust Reformer® primer. I'll give it a good coat of semi-gloss in a few days (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif)

Some of my archive pics/ RIR early 1980's
Kremer 935 K4 -01 , POC time trials owner/ driver Mike H. The car was sold off in that decade...today for sale over at Canepa's
Some guys that drove her; Fitzpatrick, Wollek, Hobbs, Holbert (Lowenbrau #14 livery), Bell, Henn. Glad that Mike hung on to #40 Sonauto all these years... we found the center-lock Lug socket for the Kremer K4 in the trunk of the 9146gt !

...nother' same track day, this is my bud Jim Torres in his Burbank Coach Works 934 (GTO class). Purchased from Cook Woods Racing, and was formerly in 935 bodywork . Jim Historic races these days with 935, 962, and builds horizontal fan assemblies for hardcore racers. He also put the steel gt body on my 914 back in 1989.

Still getting all of the broken piston parts out of my son's Suzuki 250 ATV engine - kinda like an Easter Egg Hunt, the more you look, the more you find!
