    Thanks Morgan, strip it, clean it, and add the piston when shipping.

    Another option instead of heating those bolts that I have found works well to keep from stripping is to hit them using a brass drift a couple times. Has worked great for me.

    Removing all the carbon buildup from the power valve components can be difficult but Pryme MX sells cleaning wheels that mount to any bench grinder and they make easy work of it.

    I know from experience, if you have a yz250 you have to send all 3 power valves as well for them to check fitment!

    Thank You.
    Excellent presentation.
    Milennium did a wonderful job for me on my '09 ktm 300.
    I ran it too long on the stock piston (400 race n trail miles).
    Thought i better check it even though it ran great and didnt sound like it had piston slap.
    The b piston woukdn't bring it back to tolerance so off to millenium with an a piston.
    With 6 thou clearance before work, (max recommended is 4 thou) I have been lucky not to crack a piston and ruin the engine.
    It runs so much more snappy now :-)

    I've found that there is no reason to section a right and left power valve parts assembly. Get all of the parts off, clean and then when you're ready, re-install and adjust the power valve per spec. It's not like you can get those parts mixed up if you start from scratch. Your vids are great and very helpful.

      On the old days you could swap the side barrels and it goes together but the close when the flapper is open

    Super helpful video, I was just looking to send my yz125 cylinder to them. I was wondering what advice do you have for ordering an A, B or C size piston for the replacement? Thanks in advance.

    • @bboydawgy
      @bboydawgy Рік тому +3

      I would get an A so that they bore it to that size then you can get B and C as you start wearing it in over time

    • @highlandcycles
      @highlandcycles  Рік тому +1

      Yes, if you are getting the cylinder re plated, get an A piston so as you replace top ends you can go up to match bore until you need to re plate again.
