Phil, This might help you out when you are working on your motor. I took lots of pictures as I was rebuilding my motor. By the way my REBUILD was not by choice you can read about my nightmare on the other board at your leisure. Anyway. Here is a link to my Motor photos. .pbase.com/damin69/motor" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">.pbase.com/damin69/motor When I was reassembling mine I bought a foam core board printed out the pictures that I really needed to see specific details of how it needed to go back together and use double face photo tape and put them in the order I figured I would need them in to reassemble. I sure hope that my photos will help you. If you want to give me a call PM me and will get you my number.

In my opinion the best way I used to pull engines apart even V8 engines is to open the bottom and pull the rod cap from the piston rod and pull piston and head as all one unit. Then after removal you can lightly tap the piston top with a hammer handle to knock it out. When you put it all back together you will have top compress the piston rings to get them to slide into the head. That is best done from the top anyway (a lot easier). from looks of things you are basically rebuilding the engine anyway. Would be a good time for honing the cylinder and putting in new rings. Tex, This would be great if it was an option. But on these engines the Conrod permanently attached to the crank. So the best option is doing as JR said bring the piston down to bottom dead center. And like he said at this point do not worry about your timing marks I worried alot about them when I first took mine apart but after taking it apart and putting it back together it is not important until you reassemble.

Ok Phil I rebuilt my new scooter last year. Same motor. This manual will help you along your rebuild process. mpsracing.net/helix-manual/Ok you are mentioning 2 head gaskets. This is not the case one is a Cylinder Gasket which is the paper gasket that goes under the Cylinder. The head gasket goes on top between the Head and Cylinder. The picture in the link below will help you under stand the order things go together. Take a look at this. mpsracing.net/helix-manual/06-00.html
