Hello,
I had a look at the plugs of the midget, and here is what I found:
http://hpmad.homeip.net/mgplugs.jpg
Cylinder 4, 3, 2, 1 from left to right.
As you can see the first 2 cylinders have a lot of deposits on them,
from the Haynes manual, it looks like I have problem with my valve
guides and piston rings on cylinder 3 and 4.
That would be in line with the fact that I have oil going out through
the dip stick....
The other 2 cylinder look ok, maybe a little bit hot..
Is that also what you would read on these plugs?
Then, the question is, what do/should/can I do (with minimum money)?
- how much does it cost to get the valve guide replaced (parts and cost
from machine chop)?
- should I do anything with the cylinders/pistons? How much does that
run (part and machine chop)
- rings?
- is there any other cost that I will incur (replacing gaskets,
studs...)
- anything else cheap that I should do while I have my head in the
engine?
- any advices, warning from the experienced people from the group?
Thanks, cyrille
