hi guys. im at the end of my patience with a series of breakdowns every day or at least week something else broke on my bike and it would have been better to buy a new kit instead of start with a used bike. anyways. i decided to buy a new bottom (engine block) with clutch and everything else. i took the old engine apart (again) completely and just had a couple questions. i used to build up turbo engines but its a long time ago and a 2stroke is not the same.
1. when reassemble the engine, especially pistons, should i use pure 2stroke oil to get the parts together to avoid damage or the fuel/oil mix? i would go for pure oil as with a 4stroke.
2. same question for the new crank and bottom. should i put oil first before i assemble it with the head so when it turns its already lubricated?
3. anything i have to take care of when mounting the piston back on the new crankshaft? especially about the rod bolt and the clips. any special i have to do with the clips maybe?
4. i also ordered a new nt carb. do they come set up already to some sort of basic setting?
5. i have heard stories that in new engine kits, nuts and screws where not tightened. anybody have experience with that? going to take off all covers at least to check everything.
right now i cant think of another question. thank you
