Regardless to what advice from anyone who tells you to ride it, leak test it now before riding or be prepared to suffer the consequences of a blown motor.

If you fit your good top end to another bottom end, you are still going to have to leak test it.

If it is a matter of life and death that you must ride it now, I will buy you a leak tester today.

Do not ride it until it has been proven leak free!

so where / what is leaking?

everywhere the gasket stuff i use just went away i think i got better stuff

 

[Larry's Shee]

Hmmm, not very descriptive.

Which gasket?
What kind of "sealer" did you use that it just "went away", peanut butter?
Only sealer that would just go away is silicon if used in direct contact with gasoline.

idk what stuff i used but i can seem to seal the cases and i just got crank shaft seals cuz one was leaking how long should i let everything set before i try a leak down test i w8ed like 4 hours and i must be blowing the seal out that it makes idk what im doing with the leak down test

 

[Herpderplol]

Sealant takes 24 hours to fully dry

You should not try sealing the base or head with sealant. gaskets were made for that reason...

best to allow any sealant to cure overnight.

no more than 7 lbs. pressure when leakdown testing, do not use a compressor, use a hand bicycle pump

ok im usein a bike pump and ill let it set for a day and why is there no gasket for that is there any way i could make one or just use the sealent

 

[Herpderplol]

where did you put the sealant?

only in between cases is ok. everywhere else needs a gasket

[Blaaster]

if you are getting air in the transmission when you leak test the crankshaft seal is leaking.
