tried the bike last night fired up 3rd kick not bad considering, a bit smokey at first but soon cleared ,am i right in the oil mixture at 20ml to a litre of fuel,( synthetic)

can anyone tell me the right amount of gearbox oil i have been told 300ml but i seemed to take more than that out , barry

now les, heads back on, engine is back in bike just needs a couple of things conecting up and fingers crossed ,

thanks for that , can anyone tell me what the gap should be on the plug,

hi, can anyone tell me when refitting the head on a 349 does it go straight on without any sealent etc, thanks

inmotion havent got that size but are trying suppliers for me ,

i have sent a e-mail to them but i have a feeling they only do standard sizes , hope i am wrong , will post the answer , cheers

yer, cheapest rebore new piston , got to source a piston first though , need guidence were to try ,

thanks will try them tomorrow , as a matter of intrest were abouts are they,

montesa 349 , piston kit required 83.75 or 84.00 , does anyone know were i can buy a kit ,

discovered poorly piston and broken top ring , up to now no damage to barrel , couldnt get barrel off because i couldnt find the correct size allen key , ordered now,

sorry condenser hasnt alredy been moved, condenser and points arrived today not sure when i will be fitting them,

i did check the fuel breather pipe when it cut out and was clear, i also tried it when i got home took cap off etc,still wont start, and yer as far as iam aware the condenser has been moved to under the tank,

thanks for your advice anything is appreciated, i have ordered points and condenser plus a few other bits and bobs (in motion), the bike will not start at all now , first couple of outings it started first or second kick until i had ridden it for 20 mins or so, , iam i right in believeing if you remove the air box and put your hand over the back of the carb and slowly turn the engine over you should feel it sucking if not it could be crank seals , i have a friend who has offered to check carb out etc if the points condenser dont cure it,i would welcome any other opinions on the matter as i havnt had bikes for a long time (20 odd yr)

hi, been out 3 times on this bike , first and second time after approx 20 mins the bike cut out and took a lot to re start , third time out it just wouldnt re start, checked old plug for spark and also tried a new plug both were sparking , took bowl off carb nice and clean, tried wire brushing old plug etc, now after searching could it be crank seals ?is there a way of testing , i seam to think there is less compression but cannot make my mind up, how hard a job is it to change these ,is there any pics or diagrams i could see or follow , by the way i have orerded new condenser and points, any help barry( i also checked fuel supply from tank )
