Hey man, thanks for share all knowledge, can you tell me what’s the lapping compound brand? Thanks

[@robbinsracing801]

Its a 2 in 1 Course\fine Grinding and lapping compound. Picked it up on Amazon years ago, just did a search and couldn't find the same one. Container says "QUIMICA TF". Im sure any course\fine compound you can find will work for you.

Great video! One question I have is do you lubricate the valve stems when you reassemble? It seems there isn't consensus online and you seem to be successful with your technique. Thank you

[@robbinsracing801]

I have never but maybe I should be.... I haven't had any issues, Im guessing as soon as oil starts splashing around in the case the mist makes it up top quick enough to lube the steams.

Thank you!

Does it completely collapse the spring. Like a clutch spring, once it collapses or is compressed fully making the spring trash. It does not look like it is.

[@robbinsracing801]

No they can be reused. I'd swap them out first of the year and call it good.

I’m new to karting but know engines well. Besides for this and setting valve lash what are these 206 builders doing to the box stock Briggs? Considering just doing bix stock and then do all this myself

[@robbinsracing801]

There are a few carb changes that can be made. Keep your top end as fresh as possible and do regular oil changes and you should have no engine worries IMO.
