What kinda tool do I need to measure deck height?
How accurate do I need to be for the rkt head?
Also, I pulled me head off just to check things out and seen some carbon build up on it. More on the mag side. Plugs always looked decnt too. Whats that all about? Temps seemed alright according to the digitrons.
All stock- motor, pipes, silencer, and carbs.
One more thing....I took my coolant hoses and bottle off searching for a tiny leak somewhere on the mag side. I could see a few drops of coolant just above the recoil. I noticed some leakage coming from, what I thought was a head gasket leaking. Doesn't seem to be though, almost looks like the hose coming from the water pump is rubbing on a cylinder head bolt and might have warn through.
Anyways what i'm getting to is that, in the inside of my collant bottle, the bottom of it is coated with what looks to be a black greasy film. I scraped some with a screw driver and feels like some kinda greasy.What the f--- it that? Only thing I can think of is maybe a sealed bearing in the water pump is bad. I even found a piece of silicone wrapped up in the thermostat. The stat looked good though. Where did that come from?
your thoughts welcome
