trx4502shee Posted July 26, 2010 Report Posted July 26, 2010 (edited) What would cause this?I was making a pass at the track lastnight about halfway down the 1/8th mile track it started running funny so I rode the rest of the track going slow till I could get somewhere i could take a look at. The spark plug boot came off the spark plug and was just hanging there at a closer look i realized there was a crack leaking water I took it apart today and this is what i found... Oh and it's a vito's 4mill 110 rod with ported stock cylinders. My link Edited July 26, 2010 by trx4502shee Quote

My link ouch looks like time for a crank rebuild,some pistons and cylinders, check the forsale section on here for some used cylinders, there were some ported ones at a good price. Quote

banshee67 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Posted July 27, 2010 compression? and DAMN looks like you only put in a piston and a half haha. sorry for your lose Quote
trx4502shee Posted July 28, 2010 Author Report Posted July 28, 2010 compression? and DAMN looks like you only put in a piston and a half haha. sorry for your lose Yeah my builder said i needed to get a coolhead with some 16cc domes he said that my compression with the stock head was gonna give me nothing but problems especially running alky he kept advising against taking it to the track till it was right but I'm hard headed and had to learn the hard and costly way.lol Quote
banshee67 Posted July 28, 2010 Report Posted July 28, 2010 well i am guessing since you were running alky that you had pretty high compression to start with and you stock heads just werent cutting it. i would take your builders advice Quote
