WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted June 26, 2012 Report Posted June 26, 2012 On the contrary, today I pulled the jugs, mic'd them, took them to the machine shop for a real good inspection. They turned out fine, Went to the Yamaha shop, picked up a set of rings, re ringed it. Split the case and took the crank to the machine shop as well. It is all within specs, diesel flushed both cases. Then I put it back together and everything is fine....except I cracked an intake boot putting it back together. So now I have an air leak, which I am headed to Motorcycle Salvage tomorrow to scavenge one, and then it will be all set! I WAS going to half ass it, but I decided it will only take me a few hours of dicking around to get it right. So I got it right. Well good....... your learning. Now the next time you see a big mud pit, just don't go all "Sub Commander" on the thing and you'll be fine. Quote
87sheerips Posted June 27, 2012 Report Posted June 27, 2012 Lol, that is awesome.... So you are in a situation here. If it were mine I would quickly tear it down, clean everything real nice. and slap it back together. If you didnt run it for a long time after this clay water ordeal I would think youd be ok... In theory you are screwed, but hell these motors can take a lot. Give it a shot and hammer down. Quote
