Welcome back, the ring gap can be done using a file without any problem. Refer to my earlier post in his thread where i pasted in an extract from the manual for your ring gap.

Ahhhh forgot you posted that, great. Does it matter where in the bore I have the ring when checking gaps as I've just had the bore cleaned up? I've been told in the lower end of the bore because the top can develop a small lip at tdc. Is this still an issue now though?

Also can I just push the ring in with the piston to square it up, is this good enough?

The lower ed of the bore should do it, and pushing it in with the piston to square it up is fine.

Hi unknownVicta.
When I checked mine I carefully put a ring on the lower ring slot on the piston to push the other ring in square, measured and reversed the process.

How much did the rebore end up costing? Really looks impressive.

Keep us posted with pic's of your progress please.

cost $60 to clean up the bore, clean and paint the exterior. Pretty happy with that price.

Hi guys,

This project stalled for a while due to moving house, and im finally getting it finished again. Only parts i havent bought yet are the 3 main bearing for the motor. Are these the ones i need?



Also where the red and black wires run into the back of the carby, i noticed mine is missing this rubber gromet. Can this also be bought through this store?

Also where can i find a complete service manual, preferably online? I can find lots of little videos etc for repairing certain parts. But nothing to guide from start to finish of a complete motor rebuild. Just want to make sure i dont overlook anything.

Sometimes when you pull lead out from back of carby,grommet sometimes stayed in carb ,or comes out on wire ,as seen in pick.anyway a new grommet can be purchased ,no prob.
