    Thanks for the video. Would you mind doing a quick video on removing & installing the flywheel on a 200? Thanks

      Sure thing, until then you can get flywheel puller on amazon the one by motionpro is good. Or you can use the front axle thread it into the flywheel and that will pull the flywheel off, careful not the lose the key, then align thr key up and use the flywheel bolt to reinstall.

      Thanks for the reply. Would it be safer to get a new flywheel bolt for the reinstall? Just dont want to break it in the flywheel. Seen your other videos and you mentioned if that happened the motor would be screwed so i dont want to do that lol

      I have reused the factory bolt many timeso slow and make sure you do not cross thread the flywheel and the it is aligned on the crank@@camiloalvarado2580

    Great Q&A after the lesson. Only months away from 70, get a grip on felling old at 50? Diet and exercise is the key, a lot of luck helps a bunch. Later.

  • @midnight_rider8352
    @midnight_rider8352 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Sounds like a stupid question but the engine is slightly leaning towards the front of the machine so When you say straight up do you mean straight up and down or are you referring to straight with the engine?

    • @Mrcbuilds
      @Mrcbuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Straight with the engine. Or inline with the engine.

I stumbled across one of your videos the other day and got the urge to pull the old 200s thats been torn apart for two years out in the barn and got the alignment done today and put in the bike and ran great on starter fluid but need to clean the carbs and tank before i fire it up for final tuning and ride.

    So if l want l can change the timing, should l use a timing light? And if yes we're should l put the timing light flash on tdc or the f fire position idling!

    Will these motors run one tooth off I just picked up a 84 200x I can get it running but it starts hard and idles high I’ve been playing with the carb but I can’t get it to idle I’ve replaced all the gaskets and verified I have no leaks around the carb and intake any advice would be appreciated

    You're doing a great job you're honest you say what you do know and what you don't. Since you're talking about the third world countries I was just wondering what the second world countries are and you sound like you've been to the other countries so you could be more specific what countries to deal with and what not would be help Thanks. Just a little tip. There are 9 countries that have higher GDP than we do here in America so I'm hoping you won't include those as a third world countries it is Northwestern Europe Germany France England etc and in Asia Japan where all those precious 3 wheelers came from

  • @auto5man

    Another great video Mr C. Kind of a random question not particularly dealing with timing, lol. Can you recommend a particular compression tester brand? Need to purchase one, and the quality seems all over the place (and prices) with lots of folks complaining of inconsistent readings when they buy cheaper HFreight or even NTool brands. But how much is enough to spend? Do you have to buy Snap On or Mac? Or can you get good results in the 80 to 100.00 range, speedway for example? I have never used one or even held one in hand, so no experience to draw on.

    • @Mrcbuilds
      @Mrcbuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have 2 different autozone compression testors. Both read the same. When it come to compression 5psi is not a game changer. 20psi is. So a gauge that is plus or minus a few psi is no big deal as long as its consistant. An engine with 100psi really isnt any different than one with 95 or 105psi. If your reading 70 you need to rebuild

      Hi Jr. ok here goes. 1. lock the crank at TDC. 2. unbolt the cam gear from the cam. 3 use a pic tool and hold the chain up and rotate the gear so the dot is at the top (12 Oclock) . 4 now the crank is at TDC and the dot of the cam gear is at 12 Oclock while holding the gear and chain still rotate the cam until the bolt holes line up between the cam and the gear, now bolt the gear to the cam. IF the dot is at 12oclock the little post will be at 11 Oclock if the post is at 5oclock you have the cam turned upside down. To fix this just unbolt the cam gear hold the gear still and rotate the cam until the little post is at 11Oclock. once you have this part correct the carrier that slides onto th enose of the cam indexes with the post. BUT the magnet can go on2 ways. the correct way is the magnet pointing ar 12oclock along with the little line on the rotor pointing up. I hope that helps. let us know how it works out.

    One turn of a camshaft half a turn of a crankshaft. One turn of a crankshaft two turns of a camshaft. It is that plain.

    You are doing a great job but I disagree on the clear coat. Those machines were not clear coated from the factory and what happens when the clear coat starts chipping and falling apart?? Then it even looks worse. I rather have it somewhat dull but never have to worry about clear coat peeling and you know that clear coat is NOT made in Japan so is not the quality that will last

    • @Mrcbuilds
      @Mrcbuilds  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      True, most of these parts werent powder coated either. And honestly how much UV are these every really foing to see. Automotive grade clear is pretty tough, easy to apply and cheaper than other options. I prefer to keep my project in house for no other reason than to keep cost down. I do want to look into a home powder coat system. Thanks for watching

    • @anthonynicholich9654
      @anthonynicholich9654 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're right on the powder coating and I know you don't restore you just preserve like I do. I am talking about these other places at least here in this miserable state of Southern California lol that powder coat frames and other parts which is great it's tougher than the paint but also harder to repair them paint but it's over restoring if you're looking for that originality. Sorry I did not word right and use the right grammar on this last message but I'm sure you get what I'm saying
