sweetshee4312 Posted July 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 hey, there is whiteish smoke comeing out of one pipe, i think it may be anti freeze, wha should i do aboput this???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 if its antifreeze you may need to tighten your head down a little more. the only other place it may be able to get in is thru a crank bearing, but i doubt it would be that. what kinda head you have? if it uses o rings are you sure they all got on where they are supposed to go? if stock, was it a new gasket?

XTShee Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 (edited) Is your radiator level dropping? If so maybe, one of your o-rings moved when you where tighting down the head, it happened to me the other day.

sweetshee4312 Posted July 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 im useing a stock head, and its onlu the one side, the right, so i dunno, i tighed down teh head and its still doing it, i think im onna take the head off, and cheak the gasket, and maybe put some hi temp silicone aroun dteh seal, and if it still does it, let it go, lol, or is it harmful to my engine, and i really cant ttell if my levels dropping, im just letting it idle to break it in....

Meat Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 did you use a new gasket when you put it back together ? The white smoke is prolly nothing to worry about, unless its really really puffin' alot of white smoke out. MAKE SURE YOU BREAK IN THE ENGINE PROPERLY. Once it warms up the smokin should stop or slow down considerably. Your smokin' might be caused from messed up carb jetting.... you'll have to tune your carbs jetting for your new engine. make sure you got it jetted right, post your carb info sometime. 2 strokes should smoke, but the smokin' shouldnt be too excessive. make sure you warm up that engine everytime you go riding, your using new FORGED pistons and they take a little more time to warm up than a stock cast pistons, so warm up that engine before you go hauling ass. Tork those head nuts to 20ft lbs and make sure you tighten em according the numbers embossed on the top of the head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetshee4312 Posted July 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 Its only smoking out of one pipe though, not both, and the one side calms down, and its alot of smoke, its nto horrrible, liek im makeing a new cloud for teh sky, but enoough....can this hurt my enigne....i just took teh head off, and put silicone around the gasket, and it is new, and its still doign it, fuckin great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 dued, dont worry bout the smokin', just ride the damn thing. Once she's broke in... the smokin' will slow down. break it in properly tho, don't go wailing on it right away. HEAT CYCLES DAMIT !! are your carb "air screws" set the same amount of turns out ?? make sure your jetting is close or rich'ish' (word of the day "rich'ish") BTW.... you shoulda listened to Frocash and shouldnt have silly-coned the head gasket. There's a right way and a wrong way to do everything.... there's also a cheatin' way to do things and silicone on a head gasket is the wrong\cheatin' way of doing things. You could prolly safely remove the head and re-use the gasket without the silicone. Now if you remove your head 3 months from now.... replace the head gasket, but since you just rebuilt the engine you could have gotten away with reusing that head gasket. Any chance you got that silicone squished into the coolant passages... where it can clog shit up and fly around the radiator and impeller ? shoulda listened to Fro.... Are there any signs of leakage around the head or around the base of the cylinders ? If your leakin', she'll push out black oily oil.
