Maintenance Information
Precautions in Operation
y The inspection and maintenance of the cylinder head, cylinder and piston can be carried as engine
mounted on the body.
y It should clean the engine to prevent dirt from entering into cylinder and crankcase before removal.
y Remove all washes from the interfaces of cylinder head, cylinder and crankcase.
y Be careful do not damage cylinder head, cylinder and piston when removing.
y Inspect the removed & cleaned parts thoroughly, and apply with oil onto the rotation surfaces before
installation.

Troubleshooting
Compression Pressure Too Low/Difficult
To Start/Rough Idling
1. Cylinder head gasket leaking
2. Spark plug not tighten enough
3. Worn, seized or crack piston ring
4. Damaged, worn cylinder or piston
5. Poor reed
Compression Pressure Too
High/Overheat/Knock
1. Too much carbon deposit built up in
combustion chamber
Piston Noise
1. Cylinder and piston worn out
2. Piston pin or piston pin hole worn out
3. Connecting rod small end bearing worn out
Piston Ring Noise
1. Worn, seized or crack piston ring
2. Cylinder worn out or damaged
