Piston blow by
-
So I've had this DT125r for 5 years now.
I've noticed a loss of power, checked in the exhaust port and noticed a lot of blowby, so had the top end rebuild september 2018 included rebore and hone. Was a joy to ride again (power wheelie in 1'st like it used to do).Since then I only put 3000km's on it but when cleaning my exhaust I checked the port again and noticed a lot of blowby again. It was/is also down on power, not hitting the powerband like it used to do.
I want it running perfect again but don't want to end up with another rebuild in 3000km's.
Can anyone share some ideas/tips? I had it done at a Yamaha dealership. -
Sorry, I meant excessive. 2strokes normally have some staining at the exhaust port don’t they? Due to the back pressure from the exhaust?
I usually think of blow by in 4 strokes, when you get gases chugging out the breather pipe caus the crankcase is over pressurised...
