Just rebuilt my motor after running it 5 years or so. I’ve been using Klotz super techniplate mixed at 36:1 avgas 100LL. I had a lot of carbon buildup in my pipes and pistons were black on the skirts and couple rings stuck. Really gummy residue on pistons. I have done a lot of searching and found out that castor will cause this. So I’m now Looking for a cleaner burning 2 stroke oil. Will switching to Klotz R50 full synthetic cut down on this problem.
Wanna order me some uni pod filters for my stock carbs. I have some new outwears covers that are 4 1/4” long. Uni has 1 3/4”x4” and 1 3/4”x5” pod filters. Is that the length of the entire filter or the just foam filter area of the filter? Just don’t want to order the wrong length filter .
When installing new rubber plugs on the bottom of the stock cylinders in the water jackets should I use any type of sealent on them or put them in dry? Thought bout using the same sealent on them as I use to seal the cases together. Also do any of u guys use the high heat copper gasket spray on the base gaskets between the cases and cylinders?
