Just after I quit workin on it, I asked one of my friends to borrow his leak down tester but never came around. Before I tear down, Ill build one. Engine was only started 8 times for warmup cycles and then discovered dying issue. No leak down was performed on this engine (yet) and has not been...

Dont mean to dig up an old thread but I've decided (after almost 2 months :p) to tear my top end off and trade+cash my bottom end or just buy a good running bottom end so I can run for the winter time since I couldn't for summer lol. So......anyone have a extra bottom end sitting around? I dont...

Naw I ripped my old clutch cover gasket and just use yamabond on it rather than buying a new gasket lol. I already have the yamabond and didnt want to wait a few days for it.

Id spray a lil PB Blaster on them. Mine were perty rusty and after I sprayed them, they broke easily. One time I had to take a pair of Vise Grips and get em off. Not recommended but it worked!

Let me know if a new clutch works for you as my blaster is doing the same exact thing and Im puzzled as to what it is. I just havent had the time to mess with it anymore as I have the cover off many times and Im running out of Yamabond! That stuffs $13 a tube at my local shop lol

Those shift drums or barrels with the star wheels on them like to break under the star wheel. I had 3 break on me. They will shift the trans but only so far b/c there is so much play in the wheel that its just moving past the broken part. IIRC, its only aluminum.

Maybe not but what I really want to do is trade the whole motor off plus some cash and get a running motor than stick another few hundred in this one and it still not move.... Im to the point that I wanna stick a rag in the gas tank and light it on fire....

Everything that is supposed to go into the clutch is there. It just dies when I let the clutch out. I've had the cover off many many times and tried to mess with it and get nothing. I've run out of patience, time and money on it....

The adjustment is now right. Clutch is in correct. Everythings tight. Still will NOT move. No, I am not giving up quickly, I been trying to get it moving for about 2 months now with 0 success and a whole tube of Yamabond just about gone. Everything has been by the manual.

I have no clue whats wrong with it, Im just tired of messing with it so Im just selling the damn thing. Thanks for all the help.

Just wanted to say i freaking LOVE that avatar pic of the kitty :P

Tyvm! I didnt "feel" for the rod to touch the ball, pry where I messed up and kept goin till it was harder to move....:-[ I'd give ya some rep but I cant until I spread some love around first lol. All I have is red loctite and do not plan on using it. I had some spill on my workbench and a bolt...

Well, I was talking to a few other ppl today at work and they all told me the SAME exact thing.... They tell me I adjusted the clutch TOO far lol. I adjusted so much that the pressure plate is probably like a few thousandths of an inch off of the clutch plate. Hence the reason why I feel the...

yea I got the dots lined up and when I pull the clutch and drop it into gear then release the clutch, I can feel it grab some and over like 2 secs w/o me gassing it, it will putter and die. Before I had all the steel nubs pointed up and it chattered, moved me some then died. I restacked them...

Ok ever since I put this engine together, I have been having a clutch issue in which I HOPE its a clutch lol. But I didnt stack the steel plates right b/c of the nubs and I restacked them right as per the video. I resealed it all back up and filled it with the yamalube I have and it goes in gear...
