[@scottbell83]

[@jeremylong6229]

[@lh2197]

Thanks

[@jello3661]

ah the sandwhich bags *LIFE SAVERSSSS*

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

always have a bag and a sharpie on hand

[@bryanroupe8646]

Hey man do you have a link for the adjustable hone you used ? Previously I just used a ball hone until I got what I was looking for. If you haven't used a ball hone they are awesome but, not nessassarily for precision accuracy. But, if you do alot of honing to clean cylinder wall's its so much better than a stone tool, which is what I used for years.

[@2183valerio]

did you have compression prior to removing the top end.

[@MitchsTechInsight]

I have a 2003 blaster that I have taken apart with the correct tools, but the counter balancer gear is stuck on and won't come off, I've tried wd40, I tried rocking it back and forth, it just won't budge, I'll try and inbox u a picture of what I'm looking at, any help would be appreciated

[@brokebikemtb4448]

hey man new sub here....content is great ...i have a question....its about a 2001 yamaha warrior....i just pulled the top end off and my valves need attention...mainly lapping and vg seals.... I know how to lap them but what the manual said to do is pour a solvent into the port and check for leaks ...i have leakage....so do think I should lap the stock ones or buy new and lap those in...im trying to save money cuz this rebuild is adding up but I don't want to cut critical corners either

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

id try to lap the stock ones. worst thing that is gonna happen is a little wasted time.

[@xxcristiangxx7157]

a question When you remove the piston from the connecting rod, you look at the crankshaft in that compartment, it has oil or there is no oil there

[@geoaponte9234]

At 12:20 can you split the case there without taking off the other side or do you have to take off the other side

[@dill5500]

This is an awsome video

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

thanks for watching!

[@TEAMCREAM_96]

Bought a blaster and they've been running it on straight gas with the oil pump blocked off , it still ran but there is a hole in the case so it smokes like a train

[@getttittttganggarage819]

Blasters are 2 strokes

[@dominator2354]

you definitely know what you're doing!

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

Thanks man! Don't forget to subscribe!!

[@dominator2354]

+Grinding Gears Garage already did! I'm planning on buying a 2001 yamaha blaster in January... will they be hard to find then?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

+Dominator 235 blasters are everywhere. They are all the same from 88-2002 and 2003-2006 they made a few changes like hyrdaulic brakes and electrical changes

[@dominator2354]

+Grinding Gears Garage how much do you think I can buy one for?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

+Dominator 235 all depends they vary by area. You should be ok at under 1000. Also check out our new Facebook page facebook.com/grindinggearsgarage1

[@Kyle_gallegher]

Do you insist on resurfacing the cases or whatever its called or can I get away with yama bond or similar on my lt250 and blaster rebuilds?

[@prestonnoble]

HI, love the video! At 12:20 on your video you said ignore this next part if you are splitting the case. I bought a new crank cuz my main connecting rod bearing is shot, so do i need to disassemble the whole clutch side? just to get the old crank out and new one in?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

your going to need to take apart a few things on the other side of the case to remove the old crank

[@4DoeBoy]

Grinding Gears Garage sooo the only ones you would have to take off is the clutch and main gears where the timing is????

[@iggmoneysoles4606]

I have a stripped bolt and it’s the last bolt to remove the cylinder I can’t get it off any help on removing a stripped bolt any help is useful ty in advance ?

[@Kyle_gallegher]

Did u get it? Or sell the quad

[@DeanErickson113]

Man clean that engine up before you start.

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

i dissaembled the engine for a full rebuild scrubbed it down

[@mikelwmc]

Grinding Gears Garage do you also disassemble the trans gears to clean? hate to get dirt and mud in there.

[@dominator2354]

hi, when you rebuild a blaster engine, do you have to let it run idling for a certain amount of time? how long?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

+Dominator 235 there is a specific break in procedure. if you google breaking in a 2 stroke engine. need to do a few heat cycles then ride around on a tank of gas lightly

[@charleswatson508]

What could cause your ur kicker to stick

[@luischavez3247]

hey how's it going I just bought a 2009 Yamaha Blaster and I'm having an issue that when you take off on first gear it struggles to go I want to you can out Thanks

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

luis chavez have done a leak down test? 2 strokes usually are plagged by leaks causing them to run badly. Also since its a recent buy id do a comp test as well

[@mackayham194]

Where did you get that flywheel puller at 10:10? Is a special tool from Yamaha or can I get it somewhere else?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

you can buy them all over. usually specific to each motor

[@nincal]

Question why would the platic gear blow apart .??? and when the pomp is hooked up it does not ???... i had a few blasters in my time ...lol

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

its just a known failure point. oil degrades plastic overtime. way easier to mix fuel then run the risk of the pump not working!!

[@nincal]

True your right .... better to self Mix ..... had my share of top ENDS rebuild over the years!!

[@lutviatussoleha6530]

how much is the Yamaha Blaster spare parts there, friend

[@PIKEBOYTV]

How can I contact u for work that needs to be done?

[@christophermorel7923]

[@DJswope73]

[@dominator2354]

did you upload a video of the assembly for the engine?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

+Dominator 235 we did a bottom end rebuild video. We are editing a top end rebuild currently. Thanks for watching

[@dominator2354]

+Grinding Gears Garage and what is a stator?

[@grindinggearsgarage9578]

+Dominator 235 stator is behind your flywheel. thats where you generate your spark and the electric to run your lights

[@djmystery7235]

Giant the stator also used for the ignition timing
