This video was helpful…and somewhat comforting at the moment. I am going through a very similar situation right now. I did a leak test and found a crank seal was leaking, fixed it, but the gauge still shows a leak. I sprayed soapy water on every area where there could be a leak and saw ZERO bubbles. I actually did a few rounds of spraying everything with soapy water and still can’t find a leak. My tester is made up of the bulb and gauge from a blood pressure cuff, the tubing from a stethoscope, and one of the pieces from my compression test kit (to screw into the spark plug hole in the cylinder head). I used a similar setup before and it worked perfectly. I am crossing my fingers that it is just a bad gauge (even though it is brand new). I ordered components to make a new tester more like the one in the video so hopefully that will do the trick. It is aggravating not being able to find a leak.

At one point over the last couple of days I put a screw in the piece of tube that would connect to the to my compression test piece that screws into the spark plug hole and the gauge didn’t hold pressure. I thought maybe air was just getting by the threads and moved on. This morning I slid a metal rod into that portion of tube and the gauge still would not hold pressure. I submerged all three connections, and sure enough the only thing leaking was the gauge. I could see bubbles coming out between two pieces of the gauge body. Good thing I already have components for a new tester on the way.

Thanks so much for making a video a rookie could easily digest and walk away from not feeling so much like a rookie. I am not sure I have taps large enough for those threadings but I will either pick one up or just use JB weld as we are only dealing with max 7 PSI. Should be able to rig something up like that all half assed and still get the job done because of such low pressures. My biggest question for me right now is how I am going to administer the air into the engine. I really like the hand pump but not sure I will find one locally although I'm sure harbor freight has something of that nature. A Schrader valve does seem kinda nice but also so does the hand pump. we shall see but regardless thank you for such a clear and to the point video. I ride old 2stroke mopeds.

Where are the pressure relief valves on this particular motorcycle? I’ve also noticed oil seeping from the gasket to the cover on the bottom of the engine. Clearly, this must to be excessive, crank case pressure. What could possibly be blocked or malfunctioning on a brand new motorcycle that would cause an oil leak because of access crank case pressure ? Could a bad PCV valve cause this excessive crank case pressure ? If not, what could be malfunctioning or blocked?

It started right up and ran fine but made a whirring noise when you came off the throttle... The cases had a paper gasket (that I did not replace) I just used Honda Bond... Could not using a gasket give me clearance issues? As well as a leak? I'll let you know what I find on the pressure test...
@49ccscoot2 жыл бұрын
Most 2Ts don't have a gasket between the case halves, but I've never split open an RH 50. It could create a clearance issue. When the cylinder is off so you can look into the cases easily, you can check clearances between the case walls and the crank. Sometimes the crank can be too close to one side of the case and cause it to bind up, with room to spare on the other. If that happens, use a crank puller tool and pull the crank over till it's centered.

If you were to pressurize the water jacket with the same pressure as the cylinder, if there was a leak between them the pressure would not change. So for that engine, block off one coolant port (hose and plug) and put a "T" in your pressure line and pressurize the other one similar to how you pressurize the intake. Then compare the leakdown with the coolant under pressure and not under pressure. If there is more leakdown with the latter, then it's the head. However, keep in mind the cylinder head gets combustion pressure so it's a _LOT_ more than 7 PSI. So passing a low pressure test does not mean it will pass a running pressure on it.

In some cases, it can make it impossible to get the engine in tune. It can cause a soft seize or burn a piston from lean conditions. Sometimes minor leaks are never noticed, but I've found that in the long run it saves time to make sure it doesn't leak before you call engine assembly finished with a two-stroke. If it's all sealed and passes right away, it only takes a few minutes of your time for the actual work and then a little waiting.

The Is this way to find that airleak if you have any problems you submerge it in a bucket of water The breather owes that comes out of the transmission You have that above the water

Works on some. These have no breather hose. Just a hole that's going to take on water unless you're lucky enough to get it well sealed.

@@49ccscoot Fuck put them under water then instead on what you are doing the bubble will show you where the leak is in .5 seconds and Ray Charles could see that

most likely the gauge is fine the check balls inside the bulb is the more likely culprit of the leak

Dude why would you put JB weld on your engine case and expect it to hold? ha. Otherwise great video.

Seems like kickstart shaft is the only weak point everything else exact position while kickstart shaft and spring kinda moves

PLEASE READ! If you plug one coolent port and semi plug the other W/ a small pinhole leak in the other you can apply your liquid to the hole on the pinhole plug it will bubble and tell you if any leak is present! GOD BLESS YOU! Thank You!!!! 💪🇺🇸🏁

just add a check valve to the end to separate the engine from the tester
