Line has been hit, needs repairs all over and the company doesnt want to do them up to the states standards. Michigan said **** you, I swear we'll tear you a new one if you pollute the great lakes with an oil spill.

The other day I told you's that I still have some luck still left in my bucket. Well........I just got this. Looks like I just hit the jackpot. :tup: :rofl2::rofl2::rofl2::rofl2:
Good Day, Dear partner My name is Mr. Maxwell Augustin. I am working with one of the prime banks in Burkina Faso. Here in this bank existed a dormant account for many years, which belonged to one of our late foreign customers. The amount in this account stands at $13,300,000.00 (Thirteen Million Three Hundred Thousand USA Dollars). I want a foreign account where the bank will transfer this fund. I know you would be surprised to read this message, especially from someone relatively unknown to you. But, do not worry yourself so much. This is a genuine, risk free and legal business transaction. Reply back to me urgently, if you are interested. All details shall be sent to you once I hear from you. Best regards, Mr. Maxwell Augustin |

I did a leak down test on my spare 3k mile motor out of my totaled z. All cylinders came back with zero leak down except cylinder #3. I found 70% leak down on the exhaust side. For some reason the exhaust valves weren't seating.
I decided to install my spare flywheel, trans and I bought a starter off Ebay so I could turn the motor over and see if I could get the valves to seat. They wouldn't seat cranking it by hand. Filled her up with oil and cranked it for a few minutes. Got #3 cylinder back up to 50% leakdown. Since I could crank the motor over I decided to do a compression test. I borrowed a compression tester and ran all cylinders. The numbers were all over the place on all cylinders. From 60 to 85 psi. WTF. The leakdown came back perfect on all cylinders except #3, how could I have low compression on all cylinders. Must be a bad gauge. Went to HF last night and bought one of their better gauge sets. As I was watching TV I started wondering what else might cause the low numbers and then I remembered I forgot to take off the tape covering the lower intake manifold ports to keep debris out, upper manifold was removed). Went back today, took the tape off and did a re-test. All cylinders tested between 260/265 except #3 which was 180. I let the motor crank with the starter for about 10 minutes and then tested #3 again. Came up to 265. :tup: I'll be wearing this cap for a while |
Sticky valve.
I had a Honda CB1 400 4 cylinder bike that I was restoring. It had a 4 valve head. #3 cylinder had a sticky exhaust valve. First fire it up. It would run like crap. Then all of a sudden it would clear it's self out. I used a temp gun to check the exhaust headers. #3 was low, then come up to temp. When I rebuilt the motor. I find one exhaust valve with a minor bend in it. Eyeballing it. You couldn't see it. Put the valve in a set of V blocks with a dial indicator. It had less than .005" in run-out. Put that valve in another spot, and it wouldn't fit. |
