RM370A seizure

[micko]

Thanks for the tips,
This was a start from scratch restore job wasn't running when I got it. Now got the washers for the gudgen pin ! Thanks.    Ignition timing was set as per manual etc. My engine guy reckons it got to hot so I will start rich and work back. At least it will have a bit more clearance now with the worn piston (new rings of coarse) don't want to stuff another new piston yet. Let you know how it goes Friday.
Cheers.

I assume it has head studs.. just make sure everything is tightening down with plenty of thread below the tight finish line..had a husky regularly seize years ago until we spotted one of the head bolts was bottoming in the hole in the cyl before the head was to spec, kept seizing on that side....

YEP 3 thou aint enough piston to bore clearance, packet fact sheet says 2.9 thou the guy that did my rebores said I do wiseco all the time  any who after takeing it back for more clearance wich he ask's me if I know how to measure ( should have changed machineist right there) put it together ran it in with all the plug drops and then nipped it up at the 2nd race meet :'(

You can simply measure your bore  with bore gauge to see what is your cylinder guy doing. Bore should be XX.000mm  piston is usualy 0.05 -0.08 under size depends on piston diameter.
