first i dont have the manual...but im thinking the worst..(having to rip it down and split the case).
i have mounted the power unit after replacing a piston and rings...
i was attempting to attach the the cage assembly for ignition on the top of motor and it would not seat...
it seems that the upper bearing is pretty much flush with the top of the cranckcase...not allowing the cage to press flush on to the block...i had the crank out and i did not move the bearing on the crank as i believe they are pressed on.
am i missing something? the inner portion of the cage makes contact because it protrudes slightly, can i tap the bearing down ?..is the bearing somehow not seated? im beside myself.....
there is a uniform gap around the cage and top of block the same size as the protrusion on the bottom of the cage(approx 3/32" in)....just to recap...i got this motor torn down , bored out the bottom cylinder 20 thous, honed out the other 2, new piston, new rings on all three, new inner seals...did i make a major mistake and not seated the bearing all the way down?
i feel like strapping an anchor to myself ...
can someone help me out here?
thanks so much
