I figured that mower shops wouldn't have them, but thought I would give it a shot since this is pretty much a weed wacker engine.
Okay, so I remeasured the squish and averaged about .47mm. Before I was not touching the wall of the cylinder, which is why I had the reading of about .55mm. And just to make sure...I should measure the lowest squished point on the solder, correct? Because the end does not get fully squished.
Never would have thought that a fraction of a mm could make or break a motor.
I ordered one stock copper gasket and one thin copper gasket, along with a crankcase gasket. When installing the copper gasket, should I coat it with a sealant or should I just install it dry?
Should I wait for the gaskets to come, or could I run it for a tank?
