Cranked my new rebuild tonight. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh h While on the stand at idle it blew the case gasket out the bottom of the engine. Same problem that I brought it in for!!!!!! This stroker motor is a nightmare AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhh Where do I go from here guys #1 give gary another try #2 sell it for scrap #3 does anyone need a big boat anchor?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

I just happen to have a boat with no anchor....I'll give ya 10 bucks for it, I think thats what an anchor costs at walmart anyways... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Sorry to hear that though, I'd call around and determine what causes the problem, how often it occurs, and whats the best fix for it.

 

Sorry about the badluck. Might give another engine builder a shot at it.

 

This may sound like a dumb question, but what could cause the center case gasket to get blown out? Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is a huge amount crank case pressure.


Edit: rereading it, you do mean the center case gasket and not the base gasket?

 

Damn sandbomber! Sorry to hear that... That's a sweet machine when it's runnin' right. Though, it's been stated that my preddy needs an anchor [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img], or I need a life jacket...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Do you have similar issues with the 720?

 

Sounds like the center gasket between the cases?

Haven't heard of this before.

What's Gary saying is causing it?

Let me know, I can get you Preacher's phone number and you can give him a call. PM me if interested.

Will any of the oil pumps cause it?

If your cases are pressurizing I'ld think you would blow out your ignition sender (seen that with pluged crank case vents.)

Give it back to Gary. . . it's really your best choice.

Sorry you're having the problem.

 

Sandbomber,

I'll buy the flag off of it! LOL

LMAO Great flags Marky!!!! 2mny my 720 never had case pressure, Dune me, I could not get in touch with gary after it happened. This motor has always had a pressure problem. I was hoping this rebuild had taken care of it with a new piston and jug.

 

Bomber, Sorry to hear about the bad luck[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]......2mny & I where looking forward to running that bad boy against our bad boys at Box car on New Years Eve.........[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img].......Don't give up on that DS just yet.....Take er back to TVI and have them get it right [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] It's a nice quad and deserves more than being a boat anchor.......roflmfao....Good luck & let us know how it all turns out!!!!!!!
