Raizer Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Probably big $$, wouldn't mind a Gyro Up if one came about for the right money. A brand new Gyro X is about NZ$3000 in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raizer Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 So this was sitting forgotten about for months, but 4:30 yesterday I randomly thought stuff it lets pull it out and go to @64vauxhall's open day. Plan was to just pull it out, swap a charged battery in and load it in the van and have an early night. Well as fate would have it the one seal VG couldn't supply when I built the engine had let most of a litre of 2t oil fill the crankcase, in the process of attempting to clear it I managed to both strip the kick start and absolutely fry the starter motor... Luckily I had a spare, but it killed any chance of an early night! Found a friend to park up with 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starter motor was seized solid, kick start assembly is in working order. Whipped the bore off, didn't look too flash in the crankcase Then I removed the flywheel Engine turns more or less freely now, can feel the crank bearings are a bit rough but otherwise it's a good rebuild candidate . Moved onto the clean engine, start motor was also pretty much seized, all the kickstart bits, clutch, variator, bendix have been removed, few of the kickstart parts are in a bucket of bolts. Had been running ok though looking at the plug, clean and shiny down the bore too. Got all the starter parts from the semi seized engine in and working, the solid seized engine had a good starter motor so I swapped it over too. Bit of twiddling with wires and a "New Racing" cdi WIN!! /\ Seized engine, still haven't gotten into why it's seized, but it's donated a few parts to the good one, CVT tuning is going to be a prick on the Gyro, the whole axle has to come one to get to the variator! Was going to call it a night, but got a burst of energy... Late model pivot on the left, turns out my one was totally flogged and sloppy, the 2 I picked up yesterday are in decent condition besides the moss lol Other bonus is I'm changing from the old engine mount style to the newer one that uses 2 plates The bonus is I can get another pair of plates made to move the engine back for some stretch. Ran a tape measure over the engines, outside tyre to outside tyre is 47mm on the old engine, new is about 66mm so it's gaining about 20mm track width. Think that's about where I'm at, need to clean up a variator and clutch and install with a belt, figure out what the 2 extra wires from the engine are for, possibly find a different oil pump cable and get it mounted, hopefully it'll be back on its feet tomorrow! Hi Raizor do you have any engine parts for sale I’m in need of the kick start parts as mine is not engaging. Here is my email thank sure Chris b.gplumbing@icloud.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is my email thank sure Chris b.gplumbing@icloud.com I'll have a hunt through the shed, but I think I used the only good spare I had to replace the striped one in my last post in here Might be worth comparing Dio and other models, might find a solution there.
