AdrenalineJunky Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 Do I need to perform a squish test with 20cc domes? I did a couple of searches on how to perform. Thought I read where you could do it by sticking a piece of solder through the spark plug hole. Quote
sleeper06 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 Fresh motor?Bend a p[eice of solder with a little kick on it,put it through the plug hole toward the side of the cylinder,feel the point where the wall meets the dome with the solder then kick.Measure with a caliper Quote
ritchieb Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 Thats right, inline with the piston pin (90 degrees to exhaust)If no contact is made with one strand, double it up by twisting two strands together. Cheers Quote
AdrenalineJunky Posted August 19, 2010 Author Report Posted August 19, 2010 Is there a certain type of solder that is preferred? Basically it's like using clay for a piston to valve clearance? Quote
sleeper06 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 I use plumbing solder works perfect Quote
