Thanks for the feedback (especially more so because its positive), its appreciated.

I always push a nylon hose over the valve stem and lap by pulling with a drill.... Did a Subaru boxer like that and it was awesome & sealed acetone without weeping...

I've had the engine since 2010, has been fine. Starts up first or second kick even after being stored in winter. Only problems I've had I caused myself. I'm only changing the valves here because the spark plug got cross threaded, I nicked one of the valves when I re tapped the hole.

My nephew just done the same thing with the threads how and what did you use to re thread spark plug thanks

I made that tool and installed both valves trouble-free, thanks bro!

to grind the valve you can also use a tube like a carbs tube..you will put it a the back of the valve where the spring goes and you will turn it around to grind

Hello、Thank you for a video and I am contacting via Japan. I have a question that you picked parts up on around 10:47-10:51 This plate is not locker arm and what kind of function does this plate have? I have a Lefan engine (150cc model) and this model has same parts. I would like to know a function of this parts. Please let me know!! Thank you Best regards, S.M

Just the vid I was looking for awsome really appreciated this video thanks mate 👊🏼

Is that the tensioner that you took out before you bolted the timing gear down? Do I have to remove that part? I’m about to put my timing gear back on and don’t want to mess up the timing.

Did you do any work to it or is this all of a sudden and it used to work fine? If you did some work then I'd check to make sure the timing it set up properly. If it used to work then check your tappets. I've had popping and air coming from carb when the CDI wasnt connected properly also.

Did you have low compression cause I do ?

How to diagnose damage valves? My bike vibration start just 40 kmph what solution?

What is the piece you put on after the cam shaft before the rockers like a plate of sort? And what is it’s function if you could please explain. I’m missing that piece and wondering if that’s my engine trouble. Thank you!

if it helps, it's the Rocker Arm Plate Set, I had to watch this video for the install as the item was missing from the workshop manual for the Madass 125 I'm rebuilding. I don't know what it does, but at least it shims the rockers on the shafts... TB has a kit with a plain plate to perform this function. Did you solve your issue?

Could I use tighting the headbolts or any bolts connected to the engine without using a torque standards ?.I have no special tools for it..

Very nice video, thanks for sharing! Does anyone know if this engine is technically the same as the YX160? I want to change the camshaft and looking for instructions. Can I follow the same procedure as shows on these 2 videos? Kind regards. Marijn

i ended making a tool for it on my bench grinder... took freekin forever to put the collets back in, hope my bike goes harder with the new cam i just installed

14mm wrench was nice enough to fit inside the head, and then i pulled the wrench in the way that it pushed down the spring, and i could take off the 2 things holding the valve, its easier when you put something under the head so the valve will not move when the spring compresses

Hi mate , last week adjuster tappet acre fell into cylinder , got running again but now when I rev there’s a mad slapping /cracking sounds when first rev throttle, could I have damaged something ? Close to selling bike as I’m fed up with it , am I best replacing

I know this is 10 years old almost but you should have stuck the cam sprocket back on the cam and made sure the timing marks were aligned on the head and sprocket before setting the valve clearances other than that great job have been build E22 style motors for over 14 years now

That was exactly what I was thinking. Turning the crank and removing the tensioner too. Idk don't sound like a winning combination.

The seals that go around the valve stems? I dont know what they are made from. The replacement valves I used came with new seals too.

Wow! Great camera/lighting work.

you can now get a big valve head from tbolt (30mm intake and larger exhaust) and the ports to match them all but for you you would need to bore out your cylinder or buy another one or do your own valve reliefs on your piston.

do you think that a lost of power will ce from the tappets not being properly treated or maintained because my bike womt even go on. full throttle at all not even half throttle it smokes like a 2 stroke and the spark plug is black so i changed out the oil and the plug and started her again and nothing changed

Robert Kjötar sounds like you fucked up

Tappet bolts meaning the 4 bolts that attach the tappet covers? They are M6 bolts, on my engine the lower two are 20mm long (M6-20) and the top two are 16mm long (M6-16). Make sure you see how deep they go into the head before attaching the cover plate to make sure they are not bottoming out in the hole instead of getting tight against the cover. If you mean the actual bolt and nut used to adjust the tappets then you'd have to use trial and error or call a company like T-Bolt USA.

would you say the quality of that lifan pitbike/engine is good or not ? i consider to buy one.

Does anybody here know the strategy of putting back a camshaft into its VERY TIGHT position?

i just did this, great video. i made the piece with a few inches of pvc pipe and a hacksaw

yea, i had a small piece of cooling hose under the head, towel should work fine. but putting the valves back in is really hard, but after few tries you should come out with some technique that works :)

Hey what are your thoughts about milling the cylinder down a little to increase compression? and do you know it that would mess up your valve timing because of the tension of the timing chain?

If its 180 degree's thats fine too, just rotate the flywheel once and it should line up. There's also a roller for the cam chain (item 9 in the following link), not having that could make it rattle. www.partzilla.com/parts/search/Honda/Motorcycle/2007/CRF50F+A/CAM+CHAIN+%2B+TENSIONER/parts.html

When you set the valve clearances how did you know which point to set them to? I know when the engine is complete its TDC bit when apart? @Bachorfelle1 you will need to run it in first,then set valve clearances. I'm betting you haven't done any running in at all and just thrashed the bollocks off of it. I work for a company that sells lifans and the only problems we have are from people thrashing it out of the box, throwing away the running in guidelines as if to say"pfft I don't need that crap"

hey man can you give the link where i can buy a repair book or videos.... i need to learn this. we have a lot of diffrent brand of moped in Philippines I tell you they all the same kind of engine except only the name and brand different. i was originally fromm there

i put the old head back on and got compression but wont start?

Best bet is If the person your buying it from bought it new, find out where they got it and call them. Failing that eBay generally has a good selection of aftermarket parts, at least for the type of Engine shown in this video - the TMS is completely different so that might not be the case for you though.

great vid helped me out no end.

And Kayne that's usually tappets, valves or timing. Igniting at the wrong point firing gasses back through the inlet

hey i have a 110cc mini bike with a similar engine, when i try to kick start it air blows from the carb and pops and has low compression any ideas ? please help

As the gum that you use to support the valve is called,who is the mark

same thing as this video, but instead of puttign the stock springs on put the double ones on and same with the cam new timing gear is the same as in the video also

It only goes on one way. The three bolt holes in the sprocket/cam are not evenly spaced (kind of like the holes in a bowling ball). There is really no adjusting them. You just have to line up the crank and the cam, and then get the chain on. The only way to mess it up it to jump a link on the chain.

i changed my head gasket and dunno if i done the timing correct but now my bike has no compression and wont start and sound like a rattling noise from timing chain

@n1bpd

Did you tighten the cam tensioner? That's probably why the chain is rattling 22:42 You can check timing by removing flywheel cover and the cam sprocket cover on the head. Turn flywheel so that the cam sprocket's mark is lined up with the mark on the head - the T mark on the flywheel should be lined up with the mark on the case.

@n1bpd

9 жыл бұрын

That shouldn't affect the compression. If they are loose it will cause damage when they fall out. Make sure the dowel is in the middle which keeps it perfectly centered. Otherwise the tension on the timing chain will change and also cause problems. Did you only change the head gasket? Or did you switch out anything else too, like valves. If they are not sealing properly (from not being lapped) that will cause no compression and so will worn valve seals.

There's a mark on the flywheel and a mark inside the engine casing which denotes top dead center. And if you have the head off, you can just turn it until the piston is all the way up, the mark on the flywheel should then line up.

It's ok to put a little oil on the shaft with your finger just during assembly, but don't pour any oil on them - that would be too much. The outer part will get oiled by the lubrication system once the engine is running and inner part is in the combustion chamber and you don't want oil there.
