    This is why I only have air cooled dirtbikes. No water pump, power valves, radiators, extra gaskets and just less things to go wrong and worry about. 1982 yz490 with a 465 top end, 1980 yz250, 1981 it175, 09 zuma yw50. Air cooled 2stroke bikes

  • @bigcaputo09

    Did you notice all the rust in the cooling system and the gears. They were using water and it froze and broke the cylinder. That's why it's welded in the first place.

  • @vet8787
    @vet8787 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +74

    Cylinder O-ring groove looks like one side was “ melted” by weld . O-rings require support on both sides to seal as they crush and deform to seal . You are correct that you can get it built up by tig welding but then good chance it needs re-machining . Great work on your videos !

    • @Danman1972

      @AJvsEverything 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I was hoping someone mentioned this...also, I'm concerned that the crack that was welded might actually go through the water jacket beyond just the outside of the jug having been cracked, in which case there's no way to seal that back up if the water jacket is weeping directly into the crankcase...he's honestly better off just sourcing another jug and honing it like he did this one...

  • @michi_danksta

    PUll the cylinder and get a black magic marker, color the top of the outer edge of the cylinder and then use the same glass you used to polish the head and look to see if there is a high spot or a low spot. If it is a high spot, keep the figure 8's going until you have uniform contact. I would nearly bet that you have a high spot on the cylinder where the weld was applied.

  • @williamstirton1814

    Put some of the marine epoxy on the head leak. It works on cracked boat motors that were not winterized properly. And it's not flat where they welded it where the head meets the cylinder so the o-ring isn't sealing.

    When they welded the cylinder it deformed the aluminum at the sealing surface If you get lucky you might get away with just milling a few thou off the deck or they may have to tig it up a little then deck it but that will still be far less than a new jug. Have them touch up that pinhole as well. If you don't have anyone local try Millennium or U.S. Chrome and there are others.

    What I'm surprised about it the Piston only has 1 ring !
    I watch videos on 2 stroke lawn equipment like my Weedwhacker and Leaf Blower.
    All the lawn equipment repair people say the reason the cheap 2 stroke Weedwhackers and leaf blowers like the $99 ones don't last long and wear out is because they only use 1 Piston Ring and the higher end ones like Echo and Stihl use 2 rings.
    I'm so surprised this bike has 1 ring.

    Next time you change grips try lifting the grip shoulder and blow air into the gap between grip and bar, it will puff up the grip and will pop right off. Same with installing the grip they slide right on with no effort. With or without grip glue. Bummer on the cyl.

    Cringe at the running in process, very first start should be at idle till engine warms up then left to cool down to bed the piston and rings in, followed by a mid rev cycle and a high rev cycle. These days tolerance is so good it will only reduce the total life of the engine by a few 100 hours but still worth doing right. Other than that great vid once again sir :)

    I would stop using grease in between the air filter box in the air filter itself. Overtime that grease will attract dirt and sand and as you remove the air filter it can fall into the airbox and make its way into the engine.
    I just spray extra filter oil around the seal and that does the trick.

    It's possible that there is porosity under the weld next to the cylinder head causing the top leak. You do have a pinhole in the weld lower on the cylinder jacket as you observed. The o-ring in the outer groove in the cylinder at the head might be sealing fine, the groove bottom may be OK, but the weld under it may have a second pinhole into the water jacket. I'd suggest finding a used cylinder / jacket, cause that weld is real iffy. Cheers!

    Slide that wheel forward and take a link out. No way to adjust it now with chain stretch. Just a hint for the future.

    Even though that spot is outside the o-ring it's probably allowing it to flex just enough to leak

    Whoever tried to rebuild that bike before you got it should have his tools removed. I don't know how you stay so calm.

    When you were removing the power valves, it looked like there was a repair made to the cylinder (weld or some metal-impregnated epoxy). Just thought you should check that.

    Joe, you need a sonic cleaner! Or get a 5gallon bucket of "Spray Gun Cleaner" it comes with a metal basket that goes in the bucket, I cleaned my cases for my Quadzilla in one of those, it took off all the grime, paint, gasket material, and even the carbon buildup inside the jug and or power valve area!!! They literally looked Brand New!! Soaked them overnight, then rinsed them with soapy water and blew them off with compressed air..

  • @Winchestersxp
    @Winchestersxp 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    you should always check the flatness of the cylinder and head before putting it back together. Get a Tig and learn how to weld aluminum !!

    You need a portable polygraph machine as part of your inspection kit when buying
    used machines, make it mandatory for sellers to take the test!

    A tip for getting on grips, put some rubbing alcohol down the inside of the grip before you put it on, slide the grip on and then the rubbing alcohol dries in like 20s. Used this for all my bmx bikes Lol

  • @vincentmontambault217
    @vincentmontambault217 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Maybe the JB Weld on the top of the cylinder is protruding just a tad and prevent the head to sit and crush the o-ring properly. You may try to use a flat file to check if it's not protruding.

    Get yourself a tig welder. Sometimes you can peen the hole over with aluminium
