hi guys ive been away up north fish, so sorry for not answering pm, emails and phone calls,
the problem is km have changed engines, they are now using a all in one crank case/ clutch housing, that has been machined to fit the head corectly for squish, these new engines are more like the sq bajas the carb bolts are slightly to long and i suspect are leaking air, and i also suspect that head will no longer work with 28mm crank or even 30 mm cranks.
i have spoken to km about these new engines trying to get the engines spec,s and also ask why we have not been told of the engine change, but i have got no sence out of them.
the new engines are not as good as the old engines, the old engines where the same as the cy engines, with two halfs of the crank case with a seperate clutch house that bolts on to the crank case and a brown carbie spacer.
the new engines have a back carb sparcer all in one crank case/clutch cover, by looking at the engines straight out i can see the car bolts are to long and have bitten into the gaskit on the head.
Any one using these new engines i would sugest looking for air leaks and or bying a cy carb spacer and a coulpe of gaskits (will cost under 10 aud) and removing the carbie and reinstalling it, you might even have to grind 3mm of the carb bolts the ones that go through the airfilter base right thru the carb into the carb sparcer.
last week me a freind ran one of these new engines it flew to bits befor we had a chance to run the second tank thru it, luckly km had organized to send me 2 new engines befor this happend to fix a mistake they made.
ill give one to my mate to run in his baja and ill stripp the outher down and see what the go is, unfortunaly most of my big tools are out at the farm along with my measuring equipment, but ill see if i can get one running as a sikk as thats all the heads i have.
