Starwriter Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 This sounds like Facebook. I'm at the emergency room Oh no, what happened? Are you OK? I hope it's not serious! Did you drive yourself there? I fell out of a tree Did you break anything? Were you peeping through the 16 year old girls bedroom window? I think it's broken Your arm? Your leg? Your neck? I hope you can still post on Facebook with a cast Quote

Starwriter Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 Wait! Stop! Do a leakdown test before you pull the head. Quote
kawa110 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 Thought about that....if the cases were leaking wouldn't I still get some kinda of pressure out spark plug hole??? I didn't get anything seemed like no piston at all....it's a customer bike and he stated that one cylinder just stopped working.... Quote
kawa110 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 I get good comp out the left side Quote
Starwriter Posted September 1, 2014 Report Posted September 1, 2014 A leakdown test has nothing to do with compression. Quote
kawa110 Posted September 1, 2014 Author Report Posted September 1, 2014 It will tell me if lower end is holding pressure and allowing engine to create sucktion? .......... Quote
Starwriter Posted September 2, 2014 Report Posted September 2, 2014 Sucktion? 1. The right piston is fucked. 2. A motor with good pistons will still have compression, even with a silver dollar sized hole in the cases or bad reeds. 3. You aren't too sure how a 2 stroke really works. 4. Performing a leakdown test will a. Possibly give you a clue why the right piston failed. b. Let you know if the crank seals are leaking, so that can be fixed at the same time you are doing a new topend. What do you do, that your "customer" brought their Banshee to you? 2 Quote
