got the bad news today. my piston rod has major jiggle to it. it seems my crank bearing is fried. hi ho, hi ho, its overtime...that blows! any tips on wheather I should rebuild or find a new motor? guess I might as well just build it, then I know its gonna be good. :cry:

FuriouSly:
Ahh, changed yer name... very cool.  If the crank, cases, jug, are OK shape I would definately do a rebuild.  Your basically talking bearings, seals, gaskets, piston/rings, rod kit (wise upgrade if yours is janky), fluids and some labor.  Not a bad investment for a solid no worries powerplant.  You can get some porting and extra power out of her at the same time.  Good luck.

Seriously though... there a loads of complete cranks out there for under 1.70, like
the HOT ROD kits.

MadKaw:
Thanx for thinkin about me on your search quest. I've seen that one on there too. I was doin some searchin today and found a kick ass site for this stuff. www.lukesracing.com , they have the crank,hotrod, gasket kit,oil seals, bearings all in a kit for 270, thats the best deal I've found. would like to do the work myself, but I'm scared of F-ing it up. thanx for lookin out for me though.

Mudshark:
wow ... cool site! nice stuff. thanks for the link.
