[QUOTE="Stringer, post: 177599, member: 2086"] Thanks! Well today in my travels I was able to find a Honda powersports store, and they had my OEM piston circlips in stock! I was able to get the piston, cylinder, and head installed and torqued to specifications. I used the copper gasket sealant on the base gasket so far, looked like a real good seal. New wrist pin and wrist pin bearing installed. They had Honda brand synthetic two-stroke oil that, according to the parts guy and label, is the best oil for CR's. So I got some of that and continued to flush the crank oil and replaced with this Honda oil, which is actually thicker. Also put a coat of this stuff on piston, rings, and cylinder sleeve before install. Brand new NGK plug installed with a tiny touch of anti-seize paste. Too dark here now, and flashlight went dead, so I'm done for the day. [ATTACH=full]23483[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]23484[/ATTACH] My new radiators came in today as well! Havent had a chance to open the box though. Cant wait to bolt those up. Tomorrow if I have time I think I'll work on the HPP powervalve system. [/QUOTE]
