New to the forum, but hopefully someone will be able to help.
Was riding the quad and it just quit. Got it home and started to check it out, good fuel, good spark. Weak compression.
Check valve timing by removing the valve cover, checked good with TDC. Figured rings?? Removed the jug and replaced the rings, no decernable wear on cylinder or anywhere in the jug or valves. Was some carbon build up on the valves but I cleaned them a wire brush easly.
Put everything back togeather, still same problem. Someone I talked to at the dealer stated that the timing chain was loose or wrong timing. OK. well I removed the front of the engine and checked everything, it seemed good. Called someone else and they checked everything, it seems to be in great shape. Turned over by hand and checked the marks and valve timing. Everything was in great shape. Replaced the front of engine and tried to restart. no deal :dry:
Rechecked, timing (with timing light) right on the money. Used either to try to start it, no luck.
Good spark, rebuild the carb, good fuel, checked timing with timing marks and TDC and valves. All check out good.
Still seems to be 180 deg off. :icon_question:
Any help will be appreciated.
