Well if you need to run 100LL or race gas then do it because it's cheaper, it is actually Avgas, not jet fuel, jet fuel is used in turbine or turbo prop aircraft, you probably know that. I prefer to only use high test with my builds, makes finding fuel easier - and a little cheaper. Maybe you can find used heads if you want to go cheaper?

Forged are better if youre running a turbo set up or if you're running high rpm constantly they are lighter which is better..cast are quieter and dont require pre warm up before revving up the engine..if you're building a motor to perform and beat your buddy then stick with a forged piston if the motors for a child to run around the property on go with a cast piston

Just bought a 2002 Mountain Cat 600 efi. When I bought it it ran very well and had 125 psi both cylinders; 2900 miles. Ran it for about 5 miles at home perfectly fine then it started smoking horribly. Coolant is getting into the cylinders and leaking between crankcase and cylinder in one spot. Planning on replacing all gaskets. Funny thing is that this sled had cylinder work and brand new gaskets 200 miles ago. Any suggestions or recommendations?

Question, Why did't you go with MCB Dual Ring Pistons With Moly Rings?
@cindystreet31534 жыл бұрын
Single ring pros has lowest friction design for increased power and throttle response and lowest weight Single ring cons.has shorter ervice life due to heat and dissipation and ring wear.single ring is preferred by guys who race or ride hard. Dual ring pros Improved heat transfer due to the addition of the second ring.Engine performance durability due to second rings ability to seal if first ring becomes compromised dual rings cons.increased friction and weight...single rings for racers tend to be thinner and lighter for the flutter that will occur at high rpm at tdc.
@dxray11 жыл бұрын
I would not recommend 100LL with a race head. I run 100LL in my watercross mod but keep the compression ratio bellow 14:1. I beleive the race heads are 15 or 16:1, not 100% sure. That is too much for 100LL and it will detonate and eventually fail. Run c-14 or get new domes and run pump gas.

The ring goes on the piston and turns so that each end of the ring have the pin in the center it's usually off to the side of the exhaust port or else the piston ring wont compress the end gap is the opening of the ring theres two ends you squeeze the ring onto the piston to put the cylinder on that's the ring gap but unless your running nitrous oxide dont worry about the end gap

take the plugs out and make sure its not hydro locked. spray some penetrating oil in the cylinders if not hydolocked and let sit for a few days - then try to move the clutch back and forth by hand - if that doesnt work put a rachet on the clutch and try to turn it gently - if it wont turn youll need to tear things apart.

These engines really need to be designed better, particularly the Rotax. Seriously, a rebuild required every 300 hours? Humanity as a whole is pretty sick and tired of having to rebuild engines. Somebody needs to design an engine that will run for god damn forever and never break. If it requires titanium in it to build it, use titanium. If it requires aluminum, use aluminum. If it requires vanadium steel, use effing vandium steel. Whatever engineering and metulurgy it takes to make an engine you never have to fuck with every again. You can't tell me in 500 years of designing and building engines, humanity still can't build one that is worth a fuuuckkk for reliability. I can't speak for everybody, but I don't enjoy working on engines at all. I'd rather go to the dentist to get two root canals. I do it because I have to, because of piss poor engineering. The worse thing is I am usually not the orginal person making the buying decisions on this crap, I just end up with this kind of things used and second hand. So I have no input on deciding what engineering to support with my dollars or not. You folks need to demand more from your manufactuers, and stop buying stuff that has crap under the hood.

I have a 2002 rotax 600, 13,000+ trail miles on it, completely original, and still runs like a swiss watch and still has hone marks in the cylinder walls. They don't need a rebuild every 300 hrs. Even at an average of 40MPH this sled would have 325 hours on it and is nowhere near in need of a rebuild. Trail average would be closer to 30MPH in my area, for the most part. Nothing will run forever if you're constantly beating the shit out of it and you're dreaming if that's what you expect.
