i hope it burns down.

[honda4life72]

every freakin time i put this motor back together it doesnt work right or the rigns dont seat. this time the rings didn't seat again for the 2nd time and i take ti apart and look int he intake and oil is siting on top of the intake valves. but the valves arn't leakin. it could burn to the ground for all i care. i'm abotu the change my name from honda4life72 to suzuki4life72 and get a ltr

[ohsobad_chevy]

get er done, hoss!!! Are you sure you were doing everything correctly? Might double check. ;)

[4bidden]

Sounds like a valve seal then???

[honda4life72]

from my understanding valve seal leak it woudl only smoke on start up . as now it smokes constantly. and i am doing everything correctly. i have quadruple checked. being this is the third time it has been apart

for seating the rings whats your method?

[elementryder]

ok befor you burn it down make sure inssurance will cover it!
then take all ur good parts off
but it in a little shed by itself and then carefully catch it on fire and makesure you dont leave and evidence behind

[honda4life72]

insurance-check
good parts-they can burn to i want to start from scratche
maybe the fuel line can slip off acedently while i''m riding:devil:

j/k i wont burn it down but i wi**** would burn itself lol

[kfx008]

who put your motor together?

give chad at victory motorsports a call hes located in mocksville

[AtvMxRider]

Maybe you need a new mechanic:ermm:

[Nick110]

Sounds like you are doing something wrong.

Are you setting the ring gap for the piston rings? Are you spacing them out the correct distance from each other when they are installed? Breaking it in correctly?

[honda4life72]

well found my prolem. the valve seal ont he left intake valve was leaking pretty bad. u couldn't see it until u took the valves out.

[honda4life72]

i thought it was the rings this whole time and it wasn't lol. the valve was leaking so bad that it seemed like it was the rings

[ohsobad_chevy]

Is the valve itself bad or the seat? While you got it apart, make sure the valve is good too. ;)

[honda4life72]

yea i know the valves are good. they brand new:D

[Sjorge450R]

You mentioned earlier that bad valve seals will only cause smoking on start up. That's incorrect. When they first start going bad that is what happens. Once they really start to go the motor will smoke consistently just like you now know..... lol

[86 Quad R]

in the three times that you've been into this engine. did ya check to see if the valve stem guides are within spec and did ya replace the old stem seals with new?

[honda4life72]

see i had the head ported by a local guy. i figured he woudl put new seals in it but i guess he did not. i did not have a valve spring compresser to take the valves out so i never checked them.

[86 Quad R]

i see. then if you dont have the means to pull the head down and service it. i suggest that you have it done. check and replace all parts to include the guides, valves, springs and seals. if everything checks to spec then i would have the seals replaced and have the valves reseated to the head :cool:
