You should call these bad sellers out … the amount of scammers selling crap is getting ridiculous
I'm in the Wisconsin area and I would greatly appreciate if you referenced these sellers. Even if it's just your case, you have enough insight to see and know if there was wrongful intent to pass off a bike without clean disclosure. We know that if not once, these people find legit rollers, and sell it as something otherwise. Money is the reason why. Please consider saying who you buy these bikes from which can help build confidence if someone comes across one of these sellers.
Hes an expert when it comes to these things. He knows what hes buying.
@@USMichigunPrepper No need to over pay to get views.
Yes, post their NAMES and their TOWN.
@@USMichigunPrepper exactly...for the views .
@2vintage The comments are hilarious people need to relax a little bit. These engines were built to beat the crap out of them and you see how fast a rebuild is. Do you think the race teams out there are breaking in their Pistons and heat cycling their motors lol he's doing a great job and will get hours and hours of riding before another rebuild is due. Those who can do, those who can't teach and criticize. Good job bro nice 2-stroke!
Please Joe get a parts washer. I’ve never seen a gearbox go together with so much dirt on everything. As for that piston why did you sand through the dry lube plating. Just get a small counter sink and debur the holes you drilled in the piston. Stop using assembly lube on bearings. That stuff is for automotive engines with plain bearings. It contaminates your wet clutch oil in the gear box. Your clutch is not supposed to get assembly lube in it. When it first started it sounds like a bad bearing somewhere. I can also hear it when you were at your land looking for the head leak. Sorry if I sound so critical because I actually really like your videos. Don’t stop learning.
Solid comment.
The break in cycle is what killed it for me man doesn’t know how to properly break in a piston and he always does it with every bike
Dont even need a parts washer. A tub of hot water and an aircompressor. Brake clean, anything just get the "grinding compound" out.
Great comment!
@@4thdimensiontravels855Thank you!
I applaud your integrity, owning your mess up and not blaming the seller, but owning not kick starting the bike.
Man, so many people have told you on this channel in the comments - get a parts washer. Also a tip, I bought an old stove from facebook and I pop my cases in there and the bearing just fall out and I put the new ones in by hand - so much easier than propane torches and and and. I would call out the bad sellers on here so people are aware of these here scammers. Good video.
Ignore these stupid hate comments man, I’m always happy to see your videos come up! Great build!
You’re an absolute tool 🤣🤣🤣
Agreed, keep up the good work joe
No hate. If you're going to do a job, do it 100% clean all so you don't contaminate the new items being installed. Basic engine repair.
please invest in a parts washer.
& a seal puller
Ive asked him about parts washer before@@paullussier9349
And battery powered ratchet
I was going to say, if you’re going for resale, or more importantly if you’re keeping it, why don’t you wash everything as you go? I can’t figure it out! Everything should be clean as possible for reassembly
vapor hone as well
Can never get enough full rebuild from start to finish videos. Thank you
A parts washer would be invaluable for cleaning up those cases before reassembly.
13:39 I like how you left the magneto side case dirty on the outside, so no one would ever know it had been off the bike.
He is a hack
A little dirt never hurt anyone
@@ctbale1 your shop must be spotless, you must be the best and cleanest mechanic around!
Well, if I and a seller agreed on a price and when I came over he 'said' he raised the price because lots of people were interested, I'd tell him to pound sand and walk...
Yes, and if they said it was running and I found out that was a complete lie, they'd be explaining themselves to a judge in small claims court.
@@Steve-MNyou’d waste more of your money just to make them feel authority?
@@CoralReefkid He probably has no idea how small claims works, that would be my guess or that 1% chance he's just rich and doesn't care
I got one for cheap a couple years ago rebuilt the engine it was pretty quick but the suspension was toast with lots of other parts so sold it on. Money pits.
@@Steve-MN I Test everything before I purchase anything over $100, or what youre willing to loose if it goes sour. Once bitten ya know mate? Never do I take someones word when They are the ones after Money. If they say it Runs it had Better be running. I have Zero problem walking away. Cheers.
As always....awesome video. You do enough of these it might be worth getting a decent size ultrasonic machine so you can clean case halves easily.
I love how you rev the balls off them seconds after the first start with a fresh rebuild 😮 they are your bikes I suppose, I'm just looking forward to the video that shows a decent sized piece of a piston shoot from the exhaust
Also whilst I'm putting my 2 penny into it, motocross bikes especially 2 strokes won't last very long atall when they have their balls blasted continually around a field. They are made to perform on track and not to be held wide open on long straights
It's a 125 you have to scream it's nuts off to go anywhere there made for horse jockeys and kids real men ride factory 250's or if you have a pair you ride a factory works cr500 😂😂😂😂😂
@@muggymaniac nah 125s are still off their head
The best thing about a bad seller is that i get to spend an hour watching you do the repairs 😅. ❤👍👍
Actually, these year Honda CR 125s are much sought after in the Evo class by vet riders. If you gave it a complete restoration, it would be worth a pretty penny.
A solid race bike is worth 2500 to 3000 all day...I have 6 k in my 1977 rm 125 rebuild.
I raced these back in the day.I would take a nice 93 over a newer one all day.
@@lorangajapp8086I had 1993 back in 1996, engine was matched full pro circuit exhaust, boysen rad valve, talon hubs and excel rims, pro taper bars, what a bike absolute animal, probably worth something now if I still had it.
I don't know if anyone has commented on this yet but the low end bog sounds lean, a lean bog sounds hollow like it wants to stall, a rich bog sounds more like a sputtery flooding out farty kind of sound like the choke is on. You could have an air leak at the reed or any of the paper gaskets if you didn't clean and seal the surfaces with case sealer . If you don't have a 2-stroke leak tester I highly recommend buying one.
Do you really think this guy needs your speculative bulls-t?
@@billwalter9917 Kyle gave me the impression that he was trying to be helpful, as opposed to one of those hateful trolls
@@billwalter9917 yeah I do, I've been watching his videos for years, it wasn't too long ago he was a sledgehammer mechanic . He's come a long way but he still has more to learn. Stating facts and offering advice isn't speculative b.s., I like to help with my experience whenever I can.
I think you can pull the studs out of the cylinder and resurface it just like you did the head on a table with sandpaper instead of sending it out.
(sandpaper on a sheet of glass)
You have to expect the majority of two stroke dirt Bikes have been hammered hard I replaced pistons on a regular basis on my 1974 MX 125.
It's great to see someone that is interested in rebuilding what once was the best motocross Bikes made
like watching your videos but really think you should invest in a parts washer some of those bikes are really grimed up
parts washer and a lift !!!!!!
A bucket and some diesel would do
He needs a large ultrasonic cleaner. Those case halves would have come out spotless.
An oven and more time to uniformly heat the case. Bearing will drop in
A sink and some hot soapy water
I wonder how many failures he has had in the years he gas worked on them he didn't tell us about or dies soon after sale...dirt has a way to get in...and it will if its as dirty as hes bikes are.
You should have a down hole camera when you go out to look at purchases to check the cylinder and piston condition. It will help avoid some issues and give you some negotiating leverage.
💯
You mean a borescope? I’ve never ever heard it called a “down hole camera” that’s a funny one😂😂 sounds like something a 5 year old kid would call it
And also a pressure gauge for the compression.
I call them a snake cam from PlayStation games
If he bought only perfect used bikes he’d have no content
I told you in the last video exactly how that failed I've seen it before I fixed bikes that has happened before it happens with cheap pistons quite a lot the little pin that locates the ring will fall out and then the ring starts turning in the groove until it finally gets to the exhaust port where it can come out enough to catch the port but it doesn't matter anyway because the cylinders already destroyed because you honed it
Looked like a pro-x piston. I have had really good luck with that brand. Quality parts 👍
The only thing I'm going to say is I think you should clean out those cases before you install bearings and gears and put it back together.
Oh maybe you should invest in a parts washer also👍
He does not read comments I think, I made that comment a couple of times now but so far nothing. Pressure wash before doing anything would be a good
start , putting dirty pieces back together dirt and grime from his gloves get in the engine and this is not good.
Sand in particular.
Bad for my OCD😅
He's Bush league at best. That's a bloody embarrassment to assemble a dirty engine like that. 😂😂😂
@@bradley7723 And you're giving Bush alot of credit right there.
Don't understand the many hate comments below!, we all know Joe isn't perfect in rebuilding those old Dirtbikes but he gives entertaining RUclips content! ✌
Cleaning isn’t
A hard thing to
Do that’s why the hate is there. How hard is it for anyone to be the dirt off of cases? It’s the easiest thing to do
@@ni_wink84when I rebuild engines I don’t bother. If they’re lucky I pressure wash the engine before I tear it apart. Never had any issues with not cleaning them up. Sure I’ll make sure there’s no dirt INSIDE the engine when I seal them up but grime on the outside doesn’t matter.
Your always taking the word of the seller there’s a lot of them that aren’t vary honest all they care about is the money when it sold 🇨🇦
as opposed to tearing the bike down there and then before buying?
@@KentRoads if you watched part one of this your know seller told him not to kick bike over or do any checks on it that in itself is massive red flag to walk away he chose to still buy it.
I'm in the Wisconsin area and I would greatly appreciate if you referenced these sellers. No one is required of anything here and we appreciate your work. It would be helpful to me when I'm looking restoring some used motorsports. If someone says "it's none of your business," they certainly can feel that way, but this message is for Joe himself. Even if it's just your case, you have enough insight to see and know if there was wrongful intent to pass off a bike without clean disclosure. We know that if not once, it may be a mode of operation for the less ethical folks out there. These people find legit rollers, and sell it as something otherwise. Money is the reason why.

Anyways love the content, and I've seen a few folks that have happily bought your machines, thanks for sharing!
The seller did you dirty on this one !
@@USMichigunPrepper i dont see your ass putting out content
@@USMichigunPrepper let's hope it's his master plan because the other explanation is he is an idiot
@@stateofmainefishing and you aren’t either so shut your face. If you did put out content it would be just like this, dirty parts no attention to details and half azzed…. Don’t tell others to have videos when you don’t either. Thats just moronic. You didn’t even get the point of this dudes comment and you are here being a troll, GTFO please
@@stateofmainefishing Exactly!
I enjoy watching all of your videos, especially the dirt bike contents. BUT, some of the parts you're putting back in there need to be cleaned to prevent contamination.
Spray copper gasket sealant for the head gasket/cylinder gouge,you could remove studs and flat sand it down but still use the copper head gasket sealant that permatex makes,I've used it on many 2stroke cylinders and never failed.
Nice bike man you could use a good parts washer as many engines you rebuild
How about him buying a drill press.
After watching for about a year now you helped make my 01 yz250 rebuild a breeze with your tips and tricks. Fired right up after a fresh bottom to top end.
Keep it up Joe, love the content.
Absolutely love watching your videos you certainly have a talent for fault finding and getting these scarpers to run. However you really need some additional kit a parts washer, bead blaster, an oven and a small freezer for bearing fitted but most importantly you really need to concentrate on cleanliness. Clean the machines down first there is so much crap on these off-road bikes keep up the good content but take heed to the viewers.
How, use a bigger drill and manually deburr those holes with a couple of twists.
Avoid all those scratches from sandpaper.😉
What upsets me is if a kid saved up forever to get a bike like this and was told just needs general maint. And then comes to find out that it needs way more than that and has not the knowledge or resources to fix it correctly most ppls word means nothing these days
It just happened to my son 15 years old. He sold everything and saved up his money. Paid a little more for what looked like a nice ktm. Only ran for 10 minutes after he got it home. Now he's about 400 more into it. We just found out that someone took the forks off it and put some old 2002 forks on it. We fell for this guy story, probably all made up BS
Hope you get a parts washer joe or atleast clean everything before you do your rebuilds , jet wash the frame when the engine is out etc 👌
Please! Driving me nuts!
The only thing I don’t like about Joes videos is that he protects these bad sellers, which could in turn mean his own viewers could fall foul of them and also get ripped off.
I’m sure he realizes that would create a lot of drama locally for him over time. Constantly calling out shady people.
He makes money from these videos and usually when he sells them. He does alright in the end luckily!
That opens him to lawsuits.
These are 30 year old dirtbikes, and buyer beware.
Six years ago bearings might have worked etc
Think of how many he gets cheap, they just need gas or something simple..
It's all in the game.. he's an expert.. and still buys lemons sometimes ..
He’s not an expert ,lol. He just buys them and it doesn’t 😢matter if they are good bad or stolen it’s all content . People need to be smart if it’s too good to be true, use your head
Not saying your wrong but joe is smart his experience in buying these bikes are real world scenarios what he shows is exactly what you need to watch out for yourself if somthing seems off don't buy it joe buys these bikes anyways because he is in that business and he is able to show us the potential basket cases. Calling out the people that sell these bikes isn't going to do anything because in the end the deal was legally made
It does seem slightly odd how the seller said this bike should run ! As buyer you are purchasing it as none runner for cheap as never ran on purchasing the bike. Your views should help with cost of fixing this bike up but best to put the advert on of the bike listed and discription of bike seller is offering for sale as not to mislead
The detail you show is amazing. I definitely like that I found this channel
All the crud left inside of the cases must be for fast break-in ... lol
Nothing inside the case 😂😂.
But sludge and dirt 😂😂😂
@@bradley7723 it was clean enough he's never once had any problems.
@@jerrywilcox9890 it's easy to make an engine run for an hour but the 100th hour shows durability which we will never see or know.
@@jerrywilcox9890 another stupid comment by Jerry, again you have obviously never built anything, and it shows. Just stop making comments, you look like a fool
Love the sound of a two stroke echoing 😊
No better sound
A note to anyone watching this video at the end this is not what you want to do when you rebuild a motor please don't thrash the motor within an inch of it's life as its a for sure way for it not to last, you need to run it at a third of its revs for 30-40 mins then let it cool completely and then progressively build the revs up and allow the motor cool completely. The motor will thank you in the end.
Rubbish boomer logic.
Profesional builder logic.
Some people have no morals 😮 , Happy Easter folks 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇬🇧
Running in procedure, heat cycles, all ignored as usual.
Dudes the throttle king!
thats norm for joe!!!
yep, we'll see the results if any on next teardown
cylinder head gouge was a big miss when it was leaking to start with
How do you guys, as usual, sit through another hour long video just to comment how bad this kid is??? I can hear you yelling at the screen? I'd stop watching an give yourself another hour of happiness..
@@user-ik4fd9ny4b it's comedy watching a shade tree mechanic.
Happy Days Joe Has Posted 🔥🔥🔥
If my mentor saw me assemble that engine he'd blow all his gaskets, fuses, and circuit breakers. Then he'd blow mine. If that bike came to me for anything in its present condition there would be an $85 minimum charge for cleaning it first.
at least you get blown
Your woman wasn't all that great. Tell her not to come back.

Your woman wasn't that good. Tell her not to come back.@@jaimieboy999
Get a cheap oven put the case halves in there for a bit. The bearings will drop right in.
Yep. That's how I do it but I'm lucky because I have a small oven, full kitchen size though, set up and vented in the garage for powder coating small parts. Works beautiful for bearing work that way as well!!!!!!!'n
Allen Millyard in the UK, who builds amazing bikes, uses a gas barbeque to heat his parts when fitting bearings. Pick up a Weber grill on E Bay.
@@curmudgeon1933ill be damned lol! I have an old suzuki shop manual that says CAUTION: There may be residual odor after heating the crankcases. If using a household oven check with the person who uses it for food preparation to avoid getting into trouble. 😂
@@wvangus82 The things I did at home in my youth - I shouldn't be here. How did my mom allow it?!
That is caused by putting head studs in with vise grips what happens is as it gets farther down the rivet on the vise grip will dig into the aluminum that's why you never ever install studs with vise grips
Koken Tools sells a m8 x 1.25 stud driver that works pretty good
Even the double nut method is way better than damaging parts I always say it costs you more to do things the wrong way because you damage other stuff along the way
I think someone used Stahlwille stud removers with an impact wrench. Seen it before...
$3,000ish bike in my area. Hopefully you’re giving these proper heat cycles off camera though.
I loved my 94 CR 250 wish that I owned a 94, 125 to .
A complete bike restored is going for big dollars today especially if Europeans are interested in buying it
It’s not all that overpriced for a complete bike, even though it needed rebuilding how bad did you want it That’s the way I look at it
Joe, you need to start telling us who the seller is when they blatantly lie to you. They deserve to be called out for ripping people off.
It none of your business.
Jerry must be one of them. He doesn’t want scum bag sellers called out lol
@@Hold-my-beer then he gets sued
@Hold-my-beer because he can't prove what the seller said or didn't say.and if someone goes after the seller he is responsible.
@Hold-my-beer I don't sell anything cupcake lol.i scrap the shit I own a trucking company I have no need to sell anything lol.
Looks like you were able to get some really good rips on that bike out at the land! If it doesn't leak coolant, send it!
Great video, thanks Joe!
I always spray some Copper coat on those kind of Head Gaskets and some dye on the head, real fine sandpaper on a sheet of glass for the cylinder and head to make sure they are flat
I buy quite a few project bikes to fix up, I don't do it to make money I do it as a hobby. As long as I get back what I put into it I'm happy.
What I've found 99%of the time if the seller has a story to go with the bike for example (it worked fine last summer, it only needs a carb clean) or (it's just had a new top end, it ran great before but won't start now).
If you hear that expect to find something drastically wrong.
I'd rather them be honest and say they don't know what's wrong with it or they've brought it cheap and haven't even tried to fix it.
Cheers for keeping these 2-zingers alive!!
One question: why do you not clean the engine (inside and out) before going to the effort of fitting new parts?
Would be much much nicer to work on and less risk of schmutz getting into the new bearings.
Anyway keep up the great work!
Cheers from New Zealand
A parts washer would be a very good idea
I would clean and paint frame as well make whole thing look new again while motor is out
I would pull the studs out and deck it yourself with a pane of glass and some sandpaper. You'll be able to tell when you've taken enough off because the indents will be gone. Obviously take the cylinder off when you do it so you can move it over the sandpaper attached to the pane of glass. I wouldn't think it would increase compression that much. Squish might be an issue, but I think if you are using a good non ethanol 91 octane in it, everything should be fine.
Check the studs for tightness, I had the exact same problem with my 2001 CR125 and found out that I had a soft stud that wasn't tightening to torque which would allow coolant to spill out. Keep these videos coming Joe.
I watch your videos all the time,I would love to do what you do,working on that stuff seems so interesting to me…..maybe someday! I think you got a good thing going man keep up the good work!!!
I'm from New zealand and I love your watching your videos iv learnt so so much as I have a couple of dirt bikes rmz 450 and a ktm exc 250 2stroke and after watching your videos I'm able to fix and maintain then appreciate what u do keep it up my bro 😂
You go through all that trouble of rebuilding n leave years of grit n grime. The mind boggles. 😢
Right
Totally 100% agree@@jakejames1977
Has for years, and wonders why other sellers lie and give him trash, well bud you doing the same
Yeah I was surprised. Usually freezing the bearings and heating the part that is receiving the bearing works like a dream. Usually drops right in and you can hear it bottom out… "tink-tink"!!
You need to heat up the whole case to get it to expand in an old oven , just heating the hole doesn't always work.
As usual another great video. The bike turned out amazing. Nothing beats an old school 2 stroke
Just started watching your videos about a week ago. Gotta tell ya I can sit here and watch all day. Love watching you work and bring these motors to life. Appreciate your skills. Thanks!
Now that you've honed a plated cylinder maybe you should read the instructions and do you know that you have to relief grind the exhaust bridge once you've honed it you need 3,000 clearance
What’s the procedure to rebuild a plated cylinder? I may be doing my snowmobile soon.
I was wondering if that was a plated cylinder.... Uggh.
I feel for you brother. I loved my little 2 strokes. A Suzuki 90 dual range, and a Suzuki 250 Savage with OIL Injection. Cool feature for a 1974 bike. And I almost forgot my Yamaha 185. Start LOW-Balling on these bikes. The simplicity of a 2 stroke, the low weight to power ratio and the sound will pull you in and never let you go!!!!!!
I have the exact same bike. Spent $1500 on it to get completely rebuilt. Got it to start twice and now it wont start at all. Love hearing these bikes run
I know what's wrong with it.
Aint got no gas in it.
is it me or does everything look dirty like nothing internal was cleaned up with gas or solvent just saying do to all the nasty stuff on his fingers lol
You are the guy with the money, set a standard for what you buy!
from my point of view, I can't see it as a loss because I have learned so many things from you. I watched the views go up on all of your videos daily. I can't imagine how many people you've helped solve a problem by tearing the whole bike down and going through the motor sometimes rather it needs it or not your work is very clean and great. You know your stuff extremely well I'm glad someone on RUclips is doing it, the correct way it's nice to see the older bikes come back to life, and sometimes even be restored! Keep it up Joe
currently my favourite youtube channel and ive been about here for years back when you guys just ran bikes up and down the road ha.
9:29 just a suggestion when installing a seal blind using a hammer and seal driver. Put some grease on the back side where the spring is, to forgo the possibility of the spring popping out of its groove from the shock of being hammered into the case.
Take all the time to put new bearings in and seals but the inside of the cases look pretty dirty inside from what your video is showing
That's a good observation time consuming but I'm sure it'll get cleaned on the first oil change 😮.
Think you need your eyes checked.
Stop defending him he is dead right about the dirt and he doesn't need his eyes checked.
BRAVO, your patience and knowledge pays off long after I'd have taken a sledgehammer or a match to this project
When de-burring the exhaust ports on the piston, just use a larger drill bit and finger spin it over the holes(bores) to remove the burrs, you won't scar or score up the piston that way and it's faster.
I understand heating up the housing(crank case) to make the hole(bore) a larger diameter so that the bearing slides in easier, but wouldn't you achieve the opposite affect? As the metal heats up and expands, the metal has to go somewhere so it would close up the hole(bore). The metal will not contract as it heats up.
Really good video and excellent camera angles!
Thanks for sharing.
or just buy a Honda piston & dont drill anything the holes will already be there!
Thanks for the video. I you and your family have a wonderful Easter.
Love watching your troubleshooting and rebuilding - test drives not so much.
FYI I strongly discourage you from using the block wall as your teeter point while pulling seals. Keep up the good content!
When you kicked it over without the spark plug sounded like crash bandicoot jumping 🤣
Good job Joe.
Turning lemons into lemonade on this one.
Great job man! Nice to see you saved it and gave it a new life. Well done!
Why didn't you tidy up the frame with a lick of paint just touch it up with a rattle can. ? Good channel but me personally he does miss a few easy quick jobs that make a huge difference
So much for breaking in the new piston and rings. You use to but now seems like you just can't wait to rip the hell out of it. Do better.
You are correct to lean the pilot jet but the main and perhaps the needle sound lean as well.......maybe dangerously lean.
You kinda sound like Private Pile assembling his rifle. Lol
Golly. Yyyeeessss sir. I guarantee I wouldn't be using any starting fluid. And if I find a crack anywhere on the cases, I'm getting new cause I can't weld aluminum or know anyone who can. Should I stop lying about it not able to do it cause people can watch it being done could be embarrassing. I wish I could stand up for myself when I get caught buying junk
The gift that keeps on giving!
I agree with alot of comments here. We want you on top form for us.parts washer is a must. Also the lube wasn’t right. Gearbox bearing just use 10w40. Main bearings 2 stroke! glue a large sand paper down to flat surface and sand the top of cylinder keeping it flat. Obviously removing studs. Measure before n after. Add another base gasket or thinker one. Or if u can set base gasket by squish.
Great job Joe you are super good at this. And I agree you need to call out the rip offs A holes
Well, that engine needs a new top end after that NOT break-in. LMAO.
How so? Sounds like personal experience
Been saying that for a while lol
@@CoralReefkid piston and rings need heat cycles to allow them to form properly to the cylinder walls when freshly replaced. Increases the life of the top end.
This is the comment I was looking for and I totally agree 😮
And then he sells it to someone else do you think he sands down the top end or sells it like it is 😮
You can remove the studs and get a granite surface block then set a sheet of sandpaper on it to resurface the cylinder and head. That’s what I have used and have had really good results.
Hey Joe just pull the studs and sand it down like you did for the head flat surface glass or something and sand paper. Works on both surfaces. Hope this helps
Being a honest man, I believe everyone is honest. But I assume there are scammers out there who are willing to sell you a broker down bike. Thank heavens you are a great mechanic and can fix anything (at a price) sadly.
Well as they say karma is a bitch, scammers will pay someday and pay a heavy price.
I love your attention to details when rebuilding these bikes. Too bad your all the way up north. I'd love to buy one. Here on the east coast...you can't trust any sellers..their all scammers. Only ones who sell legit know it and sell high to the point its almost not worth buying them
If someone cheated me like that, they better have lots of homeowners insurance 😎 and dental insurance.😮
Joe is learning more about man’s propensity for lying and deception that motorcycles lately…
And you’d better have a bulletproof vest on
@@CoralReefkidreal men throw hands
Lol you ain't going to do anything so quit acting like a big man 😂😂.you would be in jail and sued so fast your head would spin.
Try not to let critical comments get to you, either. Great work!
BRAVO, with some struggles you got it up and running. Now to chase 2Vinny around the yard. Keep up the hard work.
Young man I feel for you to many bad people in this world I like to think the best of people but you get taken advantage of god bless you and I truly love watching your videos thank you happy Easter .
Heating the cases causes the metal to expand, making it harder to press in the bearings. If you want the bearings to drop right into the cases you want to put them into the freezer along with the bearings.
Yeah Joe....my grandmother only drove this to church every Wednesday so it only needs a carb clean and about $2000.oo more of stuff....but should start right up after the moon turns purple this last equinox when Saturn aligns with the third moon of Jupiter.Oh yeah.....but that has to be on a leap year only.And the oceans currents reverse.Its that simple..!!
I just can't believe you put those new bearings in without pressure washing or solvent washing the case halves!
Cool video! I wonder if you could take the jug off and sand the top flat. Maybe get a good size piece of glass, tape some 1000 grit sand paper to it and get it wet, then go to town sanding until the grooves/scratches are gone.
Aluminum is a great conductor of heat - once you take the heat off, it quickly returns to its prior dimensions and becomes cool to the touch within a very short time. Unless you're ready instantly with your bearings, heating it up with a torch will do little to help.
Get a parts washer, clean parts go together so much better
I have an idea: use a marble cutting slab( like in most kitchens) and sum 400grit sandpaper/soapy water to clean up those scratches.
