Just put together my blaster and something wierd happened

[Yamahablasterboy1394]

So I got an engine off of ebay. I bolted it in, hooked the exhaust up, and the carb. We didnt have the gas tank on so we put gas down the sparkplug hole. The engine fired. But thats not the problem. the problem came later we we put the tank on. And while i was riding around, I was going to shift into second but i accidentaly went into neutral. so i went to down shift the engine, and the shifter peddle fell offthe kickstart fell off too at the same time). then the engine started to scream, i pulled the cap off the plug, because that was the only killswitch at the time. but it kept on going. I turned the fuel off and it still kept going. so i had to wait till the engine died out. But my question is why did it keep going after i pulled the cap off the plug. Im taking a guess but i think it was the gear for the kickstarter inside the crankcase.

Holy sh*t bud.

 

[00blasterRESTO]

how close was the wire. and possibly the heat of the cylinder was hot enouph to ingite the fuel. seems odd to me

 

[Yamahablasterboy1394]

i dont know how the shifter fell off. My only explanation, my brother put it on. I told him it wasnt on far enough but he didnt listen too me. and i didnt fix it myself. and as for the kickstarter my friend put it on, but i looked it over and i didnt see anything wrong wit the kickstarter. But they fell off at the same time.

Wut wire?

 

[Jabes]

the spark plug wire I think he means

 

[00blasterRESTO]

yea jabes is correct and, those falling off at the same time is no more than a maraculous display of poor work. no offense to brothers or buddys.

lol its weird but probably from the ride it just fell off weirdly at the same time

Your cylinder must have been hot as hell to keep it running that long without a spark. Was your throttle stuck open to or did it just idle?

 

[Stryder917]

ooo!! DING DING, this happened to me when i first got my blaster EXCEPT THE STUFF FALLING OFF, I MEAN THE KEEP RUNNING THING HAPPENED TO ME.

there is a good chance that what happened to me is different, so dont completely rely on this...but read on.. when it does that..it is burning off overlean fuel...if you still have ur injection on, it shuts off when there is nothign telling it how much to go in (pulling off the wire would cause that), and your engine burns that off...and because of the heat of the engine, it keeps running till it burns off... which isn't good lol, but it isn't TOO bad for it either... now, since ur kickstarter fell off..check to make sure a gear..or something didn't fall down inside..or anytin like that, cuz that could cause MAAJOR problems... idk why it started to scream tho...cuz i dont see anyting that would have caused it unless something fell in..

 

[00blasterRESTO]

Yea I think stryder is right there, I think the reson it would screem would also be due to that lean mixture as well.

No my throttle wasnt stuck or anything it was on idle

YA the engien i got already had a oil block off kit thing on it which i was glad about cause i didnt want the fuel injection to fail. But the fuel i put in was 40:1 which isnt what i was supposed to be usin but i want to try it out.


Also Did u have to replace anything in the motor. cause i havent fired it back up yet i dont want to take chances

 

[randelator]

its probabely the case matching together you probabely have a leak were the case meet near the crank and thats wats causing your trouble!!!

 

[dirtyblaster]

bingo! possible air leak, and do not let your brother or that friend put thhe stuff ont his time! u have any idea what would happen if your tires flew off from losse lug nuts?

 

[Yamahablasterboy1394]

lol, ya i should'nt of let him do it in the first place

 

[00blasterRESTO]

lol, dirtyblaster got good advise up there

 

[flyers42091]

Yeah it sucks when your tires fall off while your riding. The guy i bought my 01 off from didn't tighten the right rear tire and it fell off the first time i rode it, lol

 

[dirtyblaster]

lol one of my friends put the wrong spokes in his dirtbike rims.

i was doing a wheelie and the next thing i know i'm falling off and the rim is bouncing as i get road rash

 

[Stryder917]

lmao, get this one-- i forgot to finish putting the spokes on my yz250..and i left it sit in my garage, and my cuz came and went to take it for a ride..and i looked outside and i saw him layin on the ground with the rim off haha
