[QUOTE="Stringer, post: 176575, member: 2086"] Yep definitely was leaking from the head gasket. Well, I got the jug off and here is what ive found. It looks like part of the cylinder skirt has broken off previously, I guess it's an old battle scar?[ATTACH=full]23193[/ATTACH] I found marks on the engine case where it was rattling around at some point before that was "fixed". It does look structually sound, but I really don't know if I should put this back in or not?? I looked in the manual as far as testing piston, rings, cylinder etc and I do not have the tools necessary for any of that. The cylinder walls and piston seem to be in decent shape as far as I can tell, again no tools to test anything. I do have a digital caliper I guess it's called, and I measured side to side play on small end of connecting road and got 0.15mm. Up and down play was almost non-existant and too small to measure, maybe 128th of an inch or less not sure. I did not find any of these measurements in the clymer manual to compare. Crank seems to be soaked in gasoline, I turn the crank and it gets wet with gas. Not sure how to get that out?[ATTACH=full]23192[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
