  1. Rust like that can be blasted or honed out but there will most likely be pits and stains when finished. Depending on the severity of this, it could compromise ring break in and sealing. The machine shop should be able to tell you if it is good or bad.

    so if there is pitting then would resleaving the cylinders be a good idea or just scrap em cause there stock cylinders. money wise whats the best idea

  2. take both sets of cyls down to a shop and have them spec'd that will tell you what size pistons you are going to need for each cyls. if the shop is worth having them do it, they will want the pistons first, so they can get the right clearance, and they will re-chamfer the ports. if they do not do that, or even ask, go somewhere else, but at least you will know what size your bores are. as for the porting, it doesn't look like a hack job, but you are going to have to get the durrations to a builder to find out what kind of port job it is

     

    can rust like that just be sand blasted out? or when your honning your cylinders would that take of the rust?

  3. what is that in the first picture?

    is there a good bit of tension on the spring when you turn the kicker over?

    there is a groove in the engine case, behind the kick starter

    mechanism, that the spring fits into and will cause the kicker

    gear to not engage if the spring isnt set in that groove....

     

    the spring is in the groove and their is no tension when i push the Kicker down.

  4. alright i pulled the cover off and noticed some random piece in their. it doesnt look like it came off of the kickstart gear spring.( not sure where it came from). also when i put on the kick start and worked it with my hand i noticed that the kickstart gear wasnt catching it would either stay in the same spot or it would move past the other gear. what should i do next.............?????????
