Hey all, I've got this problem where I'm going through pistons like cigarettes. The last one lasted almost two months. Today, my inner ring looks stuck compressed. The last time I had completely melted the tip over the rings.
Important stuff: e50 gila, mlm pipe, 24mm flatside mikuni, bicycle horn
I run 50:1 with Lucas Oil
I believe I'm properly jetted to the flatside
the sucker runs great and after realizing heat was the issue I have been good about watching the temps and slowing down when above 375. It's hit 400+ plus a few times but I've stopped on the side to let it cool down. The last 150 miles or so everything seemed to be in the green so I'm pretty surprised this is happening again.
So what needs to change to make this puch purr and not hiss?
