Hey RaptorRRC;

How do u install a decompression valve? What is the process? Im having alot of problems with super high compression on my stock rappy and cant even get it to spin fast enough to start. I inspected the decompression setup and cant find anything wrong with it. I'd rather go with a regular one. Thanks.

Yeah My Raptor is doing the same.. slow to crank over. Also there is a loud tapping sound... I've read here that it could be the decompression pin. I read here as well as elsewhere there is an alternative to a decrompression setup. Any idea what that invovles?

 

Its crazy that you say it could be the decompression pin because the other night i tore into it and noticed that the decompression pin had pretty much had the tip sheared off. Ordered a new one for six bucks at the dealership. Cant wait to get it and have it up by Memorial Weekend!

 

BigRay let me know how that turned out. I may have to tear mine off and look at it again.. makes ya wonder where did that sheared peice go. Did yours make a ticking sound at idle?

I had one shear off as well. It was incorrectly installed. Make sure and double check proper operation upon assembly.

 

Going to tear into mine again... gosh what a pain. What is the correct poisition of that pin? Anyone??

 

Im also wondering what the correct position is. Im installing it tomorrow night. I never found my sheared tip. I have magnetic drain plugs so hopefully its stuck to that. Fingers crossed!

 

Guys, it's been so long that I would not wanna give info on the exact setup for proper operation of the decompression mechanism. I know for a fact I have explained it on here after installing mine incorrect and having to go back in and redo it. Try a search under my user name and maybe decompression or decompression pin. Good luck.
