Well I have it all back together and running like a champ. It had problems-o-plenty. The post mortum of the engine showed bad crank bearings, a bad seal on the flywheel side, a crack in the cases between the counter balance compartment and the crank case allowing an air and oil leak, worn out...

Parts are starting to come in and I have the cases ready to split for tomorrow. I need to borrow a impact screw driver to remove the stator plate screws and a few others. I found the counter balance gear a little loose on the plate it is riveted too. I think that is were some of the noise was...

I purchased a new crank already assembled, so I have to remove the old crank and install the new one. Plan a is to heat the bearing and freeze the crank and slip them together. Plan B to make a crank install tool by welding some treaded rod to a spare nut that will tread onto the crank and...

Well I ordered up all the parts and a flywheel puller tool. I think I can machine some thing to install the crank. I ended up going with a stock stroke wesico crank kit and bearings. I just bought his blaster two days ago so this sucks. At least the motor will be like new again. I think it may...

The top ring had rotated and the gap was not where the pin in piston hold s it. The pin that keeps the ring gaps put was damaged. Anyhow looking at doing a new crank piston and rings to get me back up and running. Can the crank be done without buying the special tools, ie the crankcase...

It's premix, so no gas mean no oil. I think it seized because it was revved up. By a lot I mean like 1/8 in side to side, I think the spec is around .030

Well guys I seized it up last night by running gout of gas with it tapped out in second gear. The back wheels locked right up. I bumped the idle up a bit and it seemed happy till she seized. Pulled the jug and the big end rod bearing has a lot of side to side play in it. I suspect that this was...

This is my 3rd blaster and first one with this problem. It starts and runs fine until it warms up. Once it is warm it will not idle it just stalls. As it stalling it emits a top end rattle/rapping/knocking sound. If you rev it a bit in will stay running and the rattle goes away. Thinking that...
