hey why does my 1983 honda 200 atc smoke after i replaced the piston ring, and i put new valve stem seals in it to and the valve guides aint cracked either? Could my cylinder be worn out or what? Any ideas i tried all i kno of to do.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

if you don't do something to break the glaze on the cylinder, like honing for example, the new rings won't seal properly. honing removes a small amount of material from the cylinder to allow the new rings to seal. you might want to take the cylinder to a shop with a dial bore gauge so they can measure the bore. chances are it may need to be bored and honing won't solve your problem.

you can try this you can hone it yourself...first take the top off again go down to your local auto parts store buy a hone kit tool for a brake cylinder it would work for this size cylinder wall just scuff it up and put it back together put a little I mean just a little transmission fluid in your gas like a two stroke run a tank ful and hopefully it will cure your smoke problem and when finished replace plug. happy riding...let me know how your ride goes
