    Engine bay paint?

    Ok I thought it failed. I would be using Black like McDog, so dirt/oil shouldn't bother me. All I'm really worried about is flaking. I hate doing things twice, and this is a commitment.

    Engine bay paint?

    Thanks, it's good to hear from more than one regarding the longevity. Conditions here are harsh on skis, so if it flakes there it will not last a year here.

    Don't worry about it. It could just be coincidence, but I'm not willing to find out lol. Once I figured out it was the stator, I just picked up a used one off the Bay (cheaper than buying any single part).

    Engine bay paint?

    I definitely like the idea of simply spraying that stuff on. The last time I worked with Rustoleum Appliance Epoxy was on a set of reconditioned carbs, and it took a week to cure hard. It stayed soft for days and I prepped the surface well, and waited for clear hot days. As another...

    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[/QUOTE I wish I could get that stuff, but I can't buy anything out here, and shipping for hazardous materials is looooong and expensive.

    Just an update. Motor ran perfect for 1 day then the stator went out. I don't know if it's pure coincidence, but I don't think I will put ATF in the stator cover again. (Maybe the 64x electronics don't like it?) Picked up a used stator and we are back in business!

    Engine bay paint?

    How long have you been using it, and what kind are you using? Rustoleum? Spray or roll on?

    Blaster B1 Build (Kawi 1100)

    Hey Guys, Im getting back to work on my B1 build, and need some opinions on my hood choice. I have this 1 piece lightweight hood that I planned to use, but Im not so sure if I like the look. I really like the weight savings, but if it throws it off, Im going to run the stock setup. Check it out

    61X Stator wiring schematic, anyone got one?

    Cool, good luck with it. What I meant by metering was the TPS, and as you said the Megasquirt hooks up to it. What will you do about oil? Will premix clog those injectors? I am very interested in how this will run. Its a dream of mine to tune by laptop instead of jetting. Please keep this...

    61X Stator wiring schematic, anyone got one?

    Where are you mounting the injectors, and how will you meter fuel?

    This motor originally seized the PTO piston. When I tore it down the flywheel and stator were a rusted mess. It looks like water or condensation did get in there at some point, and I had to sand the flywheel to remove some of the heavier stuff. Everything is cleaned up now, so I will try your...

    Will the ATF interfere with the electrical?

    Fixed it! I put the piston to tdc and stuffed the hole with a paper towel to catch any debris. Then I sanded the plug seat with 150grit paper by hand until the small pits were removed. The motor now holds 8psi for 30mins with no drop in pressure. Here are pics of my setup and repaired plug seat.

    I found the leak... It seems that the spark plug seat has some corrosion letting the pressure escape. Any ideas of how I could repair it to stop the leak? Thanks

    Thanks, I was looking for that all night, and only found some vague stuff. When you say correct, is the 10% loss over 10mins acceptable or not?

    Is the 10% loss in 10mins acceptable or not?

    Ok, it's nowhere close to 1 or 2 psi a min, and not even 2psi in 10mins so I'm good. Thanks for the info.
