Porks bike carbs and boost project

Wwhite mugs in the workshop never works for me, dirty paws

Taken a fair bit of material off that pressure plate

Taken a fair bit of material off that pressure plate

Meh , it's done now lol see how it holds up

Jus whipped off carbs, cleaned everything, still no ignition, swapped leads and plugs over, no joy!!!

**** you car, it jus doesn't want to work anymore

It was all fine yesterday, running sweet, can't see why it ain't working now

It is putting up a fight recently

 

[Jeggz]

Drop of fuel down cylinder?

 

[pork]

Tried it, so of come carbs again

There's fuel in the bowl, jus hope a good clean will cure it,

Havnt got a compression tester, hope it's nothing that serious

 

[frank]

just push the car in 3rd neil, you will be able to feel a cylinder that is down on compression

 

[pork]

What would it feel like? Would you feel it go easy at one point?

 

[frank]

chuuuug...............chuuuug..................ch...................chuuuug
(#3 hs no compression )

 

[pork]

Tried that, all feels the same

Carbs back on, no good

I tested for spark by pulling plug out and resting it in block and starting, I can see spark

Any other tricks

Gonna go get set of plugs and leads, jus to rule that out too

 

[jamier2007]

Do you know which cylinder it is?

 

[pork]

Looking at engine, 3rd from left, or 2nd from dizzy lol

 

[padraicR]

Did you do anything to it after you ran it last time ? Maybe its simple like a wire somewhere getting knocked off or in wrong place , i dunno anything bout k11 engines never got to touch one has it got coil pack ? Plug lead from it to distributor has a lot depending on it so thats a suspect i guess prob things youve already looked into all this but just to try and be a help

 

[pork]

Gunna replace cap, arm, leads plugs see what that dows

 

[pork]

It's alive!!

Bloody leads.

Clutch slips a bit still tho

 

[frank]

nice one neil valve spring behind the clutch arm ? cured my slip

 

[pork]

That's the plan mate

 

[frank]

it holds itself in mate, just shove it in

 

[pork]

Ain't git none hanging about

All I got is a clutch spring

 

[pork]

Well....... I broke it !!!!!!!

****!!!

Think the head gaskets gave in

****!!!

It was savagely quick then it died

****!!!!!

Cylinder 2 has no ignition, white sludge on oil filler cap

Can't believe it

 

[Stani1029]

Was it fun though?

 

[pork]

Best 6 mins ever lol

 

[padraicR]

Had you replaced head gasket already ?

 

[pork]

Yeah, double head gaskets

 

[Stani1029]

Oh doubled up, its wierd that youve had a problem so soon with them, no signs of burning oil? Or high crankcase pressure?

 

[pork]

How'd I check crankcase pressure?

 

[pork]

You've jus jogged my memory of somthing I should of done...... Oops

I never plumed this in

What problem would this have caused

 

[Stani1029]

Mines looked like this everytime after detting pistons, oil just whooshes out from there due to higher pressure.

 

[pork]

No signs of oil anywhere.

What bout that PVC valve thing not being plumbed up, would that of bust somthing?

My neighbour is bringing comp tester home for me

 

[Stani1029]

Ah so how sure are you of your gaskets being blown because isnt the pcv meant to remove vapour from the crankcase but techinically its not so could cause sludge to form?

I had a scare when it was a bad seal on my oil cap, was white with sludge but no water loss or no signs anywhere else in the engine

 

[pork]

I'm just guessing lol

What Evers happened, cylinder 2 is dead

 

[Stani1029]

I'm just guessing lol

What Evers happened, cylinder 2 is dead

And its getting fuel and spark 100%?

 

[pork]

Defo fuel, defo spark


Had all carbs apart and cleaned today
Replaced all leads plugs, cap, arm today

 

[Stani1029]

Very odd its normally number 3 lol id guess that the gaskets are fine but ringlands/piston unless youve got white smoke and water loss

 

[pork]

Daaaaammmmmmmmm'!!!!!!!!



Was a bit of white smoke, not a lot. No water gone


Daaaaammmmm!

 

[Stani1029]

Could just be the air temperature causing steam from the exhaust gases. My car is like that at the moment and no water loss, bubbling coolant at the rad cap will give the ghost away

 

[pork]

Il soon know once neighbours comes back with tester

 

[pork]

It was insanely fast though, literally thought I was gunna take off lol

Never experienced anything like it, I need it back in my life quickly

I completely understand, i was fitting new engines on a monthly basis years ago, its just something you cannot give up on because youve experienced a small piece of what will be a bloody fast motor!

 

[pork]

This engine only cost £26.02!

 

[pork]

Right, just use compression tester, all 4 exactly the same, 10.5 bar

There fuel, got spark, maybe my home made dizzy has dismantled itself

 

[Stani1029]

I was going to suggest your dizzy but you said it sparks so the only thing it can be is sparking at the wrong time somehow??

 

[pork]

Have to check in morning.
Maybe the key I welded to mate the ma10 dizzy to the cg head has snapped

To dark outside now

 

[frank]

mine used to lift the head up when ragging it last year, and spat coolant out a couple of times neil, it ran ok afterwards tho

 

[pork]

Regardless of the current fault, I'm glad the clutch has worked

So much fun!! Cheers for help with that


Jus need to fix it again and have another go, hopefully longer than 6 minutes

[pork]

And he's back in the game!!!

Yes!!

My vac advance on dizzy had decided to dismantle itself

All running ok.....for now

Defo gunna look into better ignition options now,

Defo gunna look into better ignition options now,

Block off vacuum advance, just makes it harder to set the ignition timing. Its only to give more ignition advance under partial/no throttle conditions to reduce emissions etc

 

[pork]

It runs rough as hammers without tho
