Great ? By scooterran (Read 839 times)

Great question for J.R. and Ally. When I start the scoot, you would think I'm going to fog for bugs and skeeters. After the scoot runs for a while , the smoke settles down . Today I ordered rings and a new valve kit. I was told that more than likley it was the valve seals. Ok guys give me your 2 cents..
Another ? is , Do I oil the valve stems when I put the head back together ?

Dang Randy I thought you just puit all the top end back on new a little while back? Are you sure you got the rings on right?

Are you checking the oil and using it quite a bit? Yes it won't hurt one bit to oil valve stems, any excess will burn up quickly. Did you break it in just like a new scoioter when you put it back together?

Yes , the rings were put in correctly according to the book. Staggered and all. 2nd ? Answer Yes , Im using about 1/2 quart at 150 miles. 3rd ? YEEEEEEEEP , Babbied the little sucker for about 100 miles + , @ 20- 35 mph and never at one steady speed for any length of time. I've already ordered parts and I should have them soon. Got any skeetters ? I can fog them and your garden at the same time.
