    I am not ther best mechanic but I like to repair things.... I have to admit though at 63 years now I like watching 2vintage repair stuff even more.

      I am no mechanic, hate fixing things unless they are made of wood. I am nearly 71 and I like watching 2Vintage repair stuff even more. Though I do fast forward through the bolt un-doing as I've got less life remaining than you. My hobby: driving around a local industrial museum in 100 year old vehicles whose the cogs are each about the size of a Yamaha engine and have to be slipped into each other. Even if they don't I explain to passengers there was a gear there last time I tried to change to it.

  • @kevinalbers1084

    I just experienced the same issue with the kickstart mechanism. Previous owners let the kickstart lever slam back thus causing the stopper to slip on the shaft. This causes the return spring to no longer be orientated correctly to the stopper. I pressed the stopper off and relocated it correctly then welded it back on. It was also necessary to remove excess weld so that the unit would sit flush in the case. There is a TH-cam video showing how its done.

  • @mikejones420

    2 things here Joe. 1. You need to work on heli-arc welding. 2. Get a flat stone. Use crocus cloth to smooth your head & or cylinder flat on the stone with the crocus cloth. Thus saving all the money for the cylinder. Maybe the bore was messed up so your method would be better. I am just thinking of using your components making them perfect. A pinhole and uneven head surface, or cylinder to head not flat problem could save you money and be as good as any new used components.

    Darn Joe when you're puling the case apart on the Cub Cadet, it reminds me of the olden days when we used to put actual coins into slot machines and if you hit one and it didn't have a lot of quarters in, it would slowly drop out like 3 or 4 or 10 quarters at a time but you'd be waiting for them to drop.. that's the chunks of metal dropping out of that case as you open it.. haha nice work!! Sucks about the power valves being different, but you know that's just how things go a couple years later and there's always some kind of change that matters.

      I agree 100% on that. Looks like someone put the peddle to the floor and held it there. But still I have never seen a piston blow in that many pieces. Unless the belt braking had something to do with the counter weights chewing the piston up.

      I have watched some guys rebuild Rotax engines. When they change the bearings they have to press the shaft out. When they put it back together they have to apply heat around the hole area so the pin can be reinstalled. I don’t think they changed the color though. It’s been a while.

    If the case halves are not damaged, all the bearings need to be removed (and replaced), and the case halves need to be hot-tanked to ensure the metal bits are not hiding in the oil passages. Will Joe bother to do that? I can already predict it "No", but in good conscious, I have to at least mention it. Otherwise, that rebuilt engine will have a short life before it grenades again.
    That big end rod bearing should also be replaced, as evidenced by the bluing - it saw some pretty high thermals, so the crank assembly should be checked and rebuilt.

    As for the Cub, that is unacceptable! Unless it was owner not checking fluids and it had no coolant or oil! 200 hours is barely broken in! It almost looks like the wristpin slid out or it was just ran with little oil and/or coolant. The case not being damaged is amazing! I Had a 72 Kawasaki 350 enduro explode the piston like that and it ruined EVERYTHING! It was overheated by a friend and I was told it happened once before. Even a used engine would still put you ahead as nice as what that machine is, good luck!

    Man power valves are the sneakiest expense with some of these bikes. I’ve had that a couple of times but have been able to get new ones for where they’ve been discontinued on KDXs and KXs

    Hi, there is a guy on TH-cam who fixes hand drills etc & he uses medicale suranges to keep the oil & greese in so that it is easier to apply. You could find that helps insted of that long tube I saw you use.

    Could you explain how decompression mechanisms and power valves work please? Great videos.

    Joe you got lucky with that engine. A good cleaning and a couple bearings you'll be good to go. To bad out of that you don't know what brand of piston that was in there so you can find something bulletproof. That lowers definitely bulletproof. To bad they didn't design that upper with better parts...

    When taken the power valveactuator nut off. You should put a screwdriver underneath it. A lot of people break or bend this actuator arm.

    Wow that yamaha is gonna be really nice Joe. The graphics kit and the pipe made it. Did it have a proper muffler or was it stock? Id definitely have a muffler to match that sweet pipe man...

    I did a quick ebay search and there are lots of cylinders for a 2001 yz125. By the time you buy a used 98 cylinder and pipe and power valve you could have just bought a new Athena cylinder

    That con rod on that crank shaft you took out of that smashed engine looks twisted,even though the bearing feels fine.. check it's truly inline with the wrist pin in before assembling..Ian..UK..

    Please please please do the cadet true justice and do a complete power wash to the cases and the engine bay on it but great job so far and boy what luck on the cases not being destroyed

    The only thing I've heard bad about this Era of bikes is the valves. They were still figuring things out in this time period. Around 07 all the manufacturers solved the valve problem. Just put a set of stainless valves in these bikes and your set. The rest of these are sweet.

  • @FrankBonita-kq5df
    @FrankBonita-kq5df 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have a 1998 yz 125 head sitting around with the whole power valve assembly in it if you still need it, the cylinder itself isn’t good the piston scratched it up I went with a Athena top end when I rebuilt the bike a few years ago

    You may want to get marine Tex and keep it on hand you can fix damage like this it is good for high tempitures and you can even drill and tap it

  • @abpob6052
    @abpob6052 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I would almost say that piston disintegration was from a cast piston that was not heat treated properly. There is no other way a piston would shatter like that. I don't know who makes the engine but some subcontractor piston supplier cut some corners.
