[replyingto=prodigit]prodigit[/replyingto]a screeching sound would have nothing to do with a valve adjustment.You need to inspect your variator,belt and clutch. The variator is what determines maximum rpm on the motor(provided you have a non rev-limited cdi. Valve adjustment is simple, but IMO it's not the problem

I did'nt want to respond to this cause I thought it would get political. IT HAS.I like my chinese scooter,But I hate the circumstances and abhorrent conditions in it's place of origin.I beleive wholeheatedly that AMERICAN GREED.is more responsible for the exploitation of chinese people than OL Mousey tounge himself!The Nixon administration apparently had a plan...and it worked

yup, that's cause of the heat from running lean. My plug even got frozen into the head like that.(careful not to strip out the head like I once did).The only thing I can suggest now is use a torch to heat up the aluminum around the studs. Be real careful. Do'nt overheat it. If that do'nt work, try heating the stud.If that do'nt work, you will have to cut them flush.centerpunch,drill them out,and re-tap them.Or get another head.  |

WD-40 breaks down sticker glue also

try WD-40. You may have to let it sit a while. The heat from the cylinder probably dam near fused the two metals together. sometimes you have to soak it with WD, and work it back and forth- a little more each time. alittle heat might work too, but you have to be careful

You do know that you can reposition the blade in most hacksaws  degrees, so it's perpendicular to the handle. this is for flush cuts.I think you problably are going to have to remove the motor or at least disconnect the mounts to get the room you need. |

Did you try a vise grip yet? grab the nut, turn and pull at the same time. should come out.That would be 1/2 the battle. the other half is that the studs are probably not stripped. The aluminum head, being the softer metal probably has the stripped threads.  |

If you look in my signature, you will see the current setup. When I first put on the BBK, I used the stock carb with a 79 jet.When removing the plug, I noticed it was real hard backing out. Sure enough, when I go to put it back in, the threads were stripped  .Ok, I had another, swapped it out. (will helicoil that one) anyway thats when I changed carbs and put an  jet in. The air fuel screw is pretty far out.indicating I could probably upjet. Runs strong though. So I go to remove the plug to check color, and Uh OH starts to get hard. so I soaked it with wd40, and worked it until it came out. Color looks ok! ???I see a few other similar builds with a  jet. Do you think I should go to a ? will performance suffer? I'm really happy with how it runs now, but I know a little on the rich side is better than the other way around.It has to be a heat issue. what do you guys think? |
