Alright guys, I posted here awhile ago about my blaster needing a bore. I got it done for $45, and chamfered the points myself. So I had everything off, and when i went back together pretty straight forward.
-I cleaned the surfaces very well
-installed the roller bearing (forgot to put some lube!)
-put the piston, clips and rod through and had the arrow facing forward
-lined up the rings on the notches and put on the cylinder W/ gasket, tighten.
-put on the copper gasket and tightened up the top end.
-attached the exhaust (with new oring gasket), tank, and carb.
So everything is together but I think I didnt have oil in the engine when starting it. Should the level be visible when looking down the fill hole? I had it run for maybe 5 minutes on and off, never even opened it . THOUGH I keep hearing a knock. (sign of no case oil I guess?)
I had my brother pull me and I popped the clutch to start it. I popped it a few times after some stalls. Finally I gave up and thought there must be something wrong. When I stopped I saw some smoke near the cylinder
I just got upset from that and came to work...
SO
Oil level? probably have none, so it caused knocking and that bit of smoke? It ran it with the automatic mixing setup of gas and oil and I did see blue smoke.
