2003 EZGO TXT valve adjustment and oil leak.
Hi,
Just joined this awesome site! I just got myself a gas ezgo txt for quite cheap. I tested the compression for each Cylinder and was getting about 110 and 105 psi in each. I opened the valve cover and adjusted the valves to .004 while the engine was cold. Now I get over 140psi each. I also did a tune up(plugs, and filter, new oil, etc). First question, what are good compression numbers? Having 140psi, is that good or too much? I also noticed the new plugs I put in had some black on them already... does that mean the engine is running rich? Now the oil leak... :( I am not a mechanic, but have the competence to figure things out. I was told it would be easier to take the engine out and replace whatever gasket that is the source of the leak... has anyone ever done this? Any pointers? And/or does anyone have instructions on how one would remove an enginee? Lol Last edited by ymha02; 10-09-2017 at 11:59 AM.. Reason: Add photo |
