Tips for rebuilding an etec?

[mareshow]

Good point, I think a lot of guys overlook this. I use a diamond hone to file my rings if needed. Remember to only file one direction, toward the piston.



For sure cheap insurance.

I think the Etec Rebuild kit comes with these, no?

Thanks for the ideas guys. I'm taking my mono block to Mot's Machining once apart to hopefully get it re honed. If its in that good of shape. But given how its currently running I dont see how that will be an issue.

Generally "Girly" type Riders like you should have no problems with the cylinders lol

I think the issue you may have is not enough throttle and lots of carbon build up from putting around )

If you ever need an Old guy testrider to get the Turbo broke in I am available

Yeah I'm almost never full throttle, as I heard that that's bad for them... lol

also why would you even want to go that fast?

Hmmm test rider huh? how much do you charge for that service?

Sarcasm on the full throttle part I hope? It's a two stroke it's meant to be screaming! It's good for them.

Huh, I used to work with Tom 24 yrs ago at Riverside. He's had some major health issues this last while. Didn't know he was still up and running with the shop. Good to hear. Tom has always been of a high quality character.

Stock Pistons. They have worked awesome so far, why change? unless someone can recommend a better product? Has to be single ring though. I am just replacing my stock reeds with the ones that have been designed and tested by TSS, I would replace with stock but TSS is having great success with theirs and stocks are ridiculously expensive.

Lol yes complete sarcasm. I Ride with birdie so he knows how I ride, I dont exactly baby my sled... Its either preboost or straight to the bar, I dont do mid throttle If you ride with me all you hear is my waste gate because rather than holding the throttle I'd rather go full boar and let off when i have to, or just to hear it... because after all; dat waste gate

that's really good to hear, If its the same guy I talked to on the phone, he sounds like a real nice guy who knows his stuff!

Confused me, because on half the videos of sleds with turbos you hear the waste gate or bov shutter like 200 times...
