Hey Roy thanks for those instructions! I should have this fixed Monday or Tuesday night and I will post the video of the very first attempt to start it! I directly quoted you to my parts vender about the rocker arms and the above post was his response...

So this is what the vendor wrote me back about my rocker arms:
About 2 years ago they started using a 69mm valve length. Prior to that all Valve Lengths were 64mm. So it really does not have anything to do with factory parts verses aftermarket. There is know way to tell what valve length an engine has until you tear it down. Some people will tell you that the 1P39QMB uses the 69mm Valve Length but that is not true, we have seen the 1P39QMB with 64mm Valve Length. The heads will interchange as long as you have the correct rocker arms to match the head, if you will look back at the original listing when you purchased you will see that it did not include rocker arms at that time, we just changed the listing and started adding the rocker arms to the kits a couple days ago because of this so that know matter which valve length the engine has customers will be able to use the kit no matter which valve length they have.
We will send you out a set of rocker arms today at no cost that is not a problem, thanks for your business and check back with us if you need anymore parts.
Thanks Joe

No I was the idiot who made them both. After I did I thought "Iwish I could combine them" because they are the same subject, ones just kinda a sequel to the other.

Cool deal. this site is awesome. It really is the best tech help anywhere. As a matter of fact the only tech anywhere help aside from murky answers from TaotaoUSA (theres one other pretty good site scooterrebels but the responses are really slow so it's almost useless if your truly trying to accomplish something. I will stick around this site until I have hot girls to fix my scooter for me, which might happen tomorrow so this might be the last you hear from me and my lottery millions. Thanks for your help. I say that so much it seems kinda hollow, but dammit I'll post a video of the hot girls fixing my scooter to pay you all back.

Yeah I checked and the rocker arms were supposed to come with the kit but they were overlooked. The guy is really cool but still it's a drag to have to wait to ride my scooter. Very anti-climactic. It's like always wanting to get a girl and then when you do she's lousy in bed. Anyways please have a look at my pretty picture because I have parts left over and don't know what they are or where they go. And I'm bored so I did this to make sure nothing else would go wrong. Thanks again for being there guys. I would be dead in the water without this forum. Attachments:

Yeah I replaced the head. I don't know why the guy I bought it from would'nt have at least told me I would need to replace the F*$%^@ rocker arm assembly. Good grief. Thank you royldoc. That has got to be the problem. The guy does ship really fast so thats cool.
Edit: The rocker arms are supposed to be included in the kit- for some reason I didn't get them. I sent the guy a message. I'm sure he'll take care of me.

I have figured out the chain binding problem and solved that. So of course there is yet another problem. After tightening down the valve lash/rocker arm to the head, there is no space at all to slide the feeler gauge between the adjuster screw thing on the rocker arms and the springs for the valve on the head. I have completely removed the valve adjuster screws and the rocker arm still sits tight against the spring heads. It's as if the springs aren't compressed enough.. I am using the same old cam and and valve lash rocker arms. Can I compress the springs more or do I need to buy a new cam shaft and valve lash? This is so much fun I don't care if I ever get it fixed cuz I'm learning how to keep my temper and that is always fun to do on the 4th of July! Thanks for sticking with me...

I really appreciate you guys responding. No it's not a bigger cam but I would like to have one. I'm pretty sure I had it timed correctly. I just took the chain guide out and it seed jammed in there because it didn't slide out easily. I was lookin over the tear down thread and now I'm double checking to make sure the intake is the top valve. I also have some triangular aluminum piece that seems to be an extra part from the rebuild kit. I'll post a pic of everything I have left over *figured this out* Btw- what is "valve lash"? Different name than I heard before. Thanks again.

As many of you know I have been installing a big bore kit on my scooter. For some reason after I have it re-assembled all the way to head and the cam is tightened down but it won't turn all the way when i turn the magneto, only about half way and then back halfway. It is definitely binding on something and I think it is the timing chain. I woul'd think it would be very easy for the timing chain to slip off the rear sprocket inside the case OR AM I WRONG? What are the chances of this having happened? Do I need to open my engine case to put it back on or is there another way to tell if it really is off the rear sprocket? Can I put it back on easily? I don't know what else could causing it to bind unless I have the lower chain guide installed wrong. I have never done any of this before so I appreciate your help. My girlfriend is getting pissed my scooter is tore apart in the house , so I better get it fixed soon. Thanks again.

new piston, rings, circlips, gaskets and two new big aluminum things that go onto the block, but not valve cover. Do you think that the chain came off the rear sprocket inside the main part of the motor?(is that the block?) I thought I did everything right but the chain was being a pain in the arse. how do I check the chains rear sprocket?
