'99 KX250 Rehab (Budget Rebuild)
ecdeyzel:
Hi everyone. Hope you all had a good weekend. I finally finished the wheel. Got it trued and put the new tyre on this weekend, with the help of my 14 month old boy :lol:
There's a pic of the wheel completed.
And heres a pic of things to come. Still doesn't look like much but there is quite a lot of things waiting to be bolted on. Just waiting to finish the engine.
I am currently looking at wrapping things up with the engine. I took the pin and bearing out of the piston and the pin seems to have a good amount of wear, which means I have to replace it. I can feel a ridge with my finger nail. So will replace those and get a new piston and rings. Will try and get Wossner.
I need some advice on my water pump oil seal. It is very worn. I would like to replace it without splitting the cases. Is there any way to do replace the seal without splitting the cases?

Does anybody have an opinion on the waterpup seal? I was thinking if drilling a very small shadow hole in the seal an use u pick to remove it. Will that work?

that'll work, as long as you're not planning on re-using it. :-)
I use a very small set of needle nose pliers.

Excellent thanks Fox! Is there no other seal behind it that I can damage or anything else?
