Did you measure your cylinders?? Was the bore true? Was it an egg shape? Was your ring gap correct? Did you do a leakdown? Did you pressure test the cooling side?

 

Just putting in new pistons isn't going to do a thing. It was probably a waste and I personally wouldn't run those pistons unless checked by a competent builder.

Nevermind i found how to pressure test it, i did not measure the cylinders but they did not look like an egg shape the ring gap was correct, i just need to know were to start now

Leak down test and pressure test.

 

And of course they looked fine. You'll never see .030 out of round. There is 6 measurements to take and then some quick math.

A cylinder is bored to the piston as well. So a builder will measure the piston and then bore accordingly to the clearances for that specific piston. I will say, a good builder will. A dealer will just bore to what seems like what ever is on the machine last.

What was ring end gap?

 

Have the cyls measured properly, 6 spots, top, middle, bottom, front to back and side to side. Measure pistons and calculate clearance. If out of spec bore and new pistons.

 

Leakdown test before teardown would have told of bad head gasket.

Then after assembly to ensure no leaks.

 your not listening. You fucked up. It happens. follow this list

 

1. leak down test

2. pressure test rad/cooling system

3. disassemble top end

4. send top end to a builder to get you what you need. pay them

5. reassemble top end

6. pressure test rad/cooling system

7. leak down test

8. ride

you cant just slam new pistons in and say it has a rebuilt top end. do some research and learn what/why/how shit works and what is needed

Whee r u from dealer is not the best option, most dealers have no clue. Keep in mind j work out of my garage and I'm a nobody in the industry and three dealers by me bring all the two stroke shit to me

Finnaly found what was wrong with the shee, turns out the cylinders were bored 30 over by the previous owner who told me they were stock, so i had put stock pistons in, now im redoing the top end with the right pistons and a good cylinder honing
