What should the pop-off pressure be?
Rather than pressurizing the carburetor to pop-off, Zama recommends that the carburetor should be pressurized at the fuel fitting to 10 p.s.i. It should hold this pressure for a minimum of 15 seconds.
What is pop-off pressure on a jet ski?
WB pop-off pressure: 1.3-1.4 Bar (19-21 psi) Rest pressure must be above 0.68 Bar (10 psi.) If the pop-pressure is too high, rebuild the carburetor AND replace the metering lever spring. An excessively high pop-off will lean out the engine.
How do I know if my 2 stroke has a air leak?
Look for the wetness between the head and cylinder. Another place to look for an air leak on the head is the spark plug and its hole. If the plug is loose, or the sealing washer has been mashed down too many times, or is missing, then air can be sucked past the threads on the plug.
What causes low crankcase pressure?
An overall low crankcase pressure will occur if: There is an air intake restriction, causing excessive consumption of crankcase gases. The PCV valve is stuck open (this will have the same effect as an intake manifold leak). A blocked crankcase breather inlet.
How much crankcase vacuum is normal?
First of all, in most engines, the expected power gains will occur with 8 to 10 inches HG crankcase vacuum. Beyond that point, more vacuum does not generally produce any measurable power gain until (a) you get more than 20 inches HG of vacuum AND (b) you are operating in excess of approximately 8300 RPM.
How do I know if my 2 stroke dirt bike has a blown head gasket?
Carefully look down the side of the cylinder block until you see a very fine and straight “crack” that runs completely around the block. The head gasket is inside this joint, and seals the cylinder head to the cylinder block. Carefully examine this joint all the way around the engine.
How can you tell if a PCV valve is bad?
One way to check whether a PCV valve is functioning is to remove it from the hose or tube and shake it. If you can hear a metallic rattling noise, it’s likely in good working order. If you do not hear anything when you shake the valve, it is likely that it is no longer opening and closing like it should.
