January 19, 200818 yr just need a bit of advise really, My mate has a 91 Fantic K-roo 250cc, we were out on it at yesterday when it just seemed to die like as if it ran out of petrol. trued to start it but was not having it. Anyway took the head off and there seems to have been something smashing between the piston and the head. The engine still turns over fine, also the is a deep score down the cylinder so not sure if anything has broken inside the engine and came up over or if something has been sucked in the the intake? there are little bits of metal stuck into the head so not sure what there off. how much would a re-build be on this engine? also whould i get the parts? any help would be great. Regards Jason
January 19, 200818 yr Author oh god...... don't surpose you know were we can get any parts from pete ? do you think we could re-bore the cylinder? cheers Mate
January 19, 200818 yr ill have a word with a man jay, but im 99% sure those are nikasil plated, in which case its
January 20, 200818 yr Author cheers pete. i think he might just sell it if its gunner cost to much like, because the bike dont stand him that much anyway. But we'll see what you can find first mate. cheers Bud Jay
January 22, 200818 yr Hi betapete, Apologies for taking up this thread, but nearly completed anyway I think. I just received an email from a lad after an output gearbox shaft for a Key-Roo and thought you may know where to possibly get one from. I thought about Bill Pye but you may have knowledge of a different source. If you have any web details for Fantic motor parts could you let me know please. Also, I'm pretty sure those cylinders are plated and those marks on the piston/head are very likely from a broken ring. Ta ta, PeterB.
January 22, 200818 yr Author do you think you'll be able to rebore it then? not sure if it needs one though, it has got 1 score in it like.
