Piston and rings needed urgently
Hello guys my bike presently is in a mess. White smoke is all I see from the exhaust whenever I rev my bike. And my Mech said I need to have my piston and rings changed. Please I need suggestions on the sites I can visit to get this parts.
N.b. Am not a mechanic |
White smoke is usually coolant burning.
Has your mechanic done a compression test, leak down test, or even a hydrocarbon test of the cooling system? If it was blue smoke, being oil, it could be coming from the top end or entering through the intake since its on acceleration. |
We checked the valves ,the shims and the timing chain.. Which all functioned well but still the tapping sound I complained earlier about has gotten louder only to check my plugs only to find out they're soaked with oil. Hence the advice to get a new set of rings.
Reving the bike you see a trace of white smoke |
Valve clearances are good to check, but won't tell you anything about where the problem is.
Your mechanic needs to test the rings with a compression test and a leak down test. Would it be possible to get a picture of the plugs? |
I will need to take out the plugs and send you pictures
|
Try to keep them in order....
