Belt tension, Torque spring weak? By seanstr (Read 485 times)

I noticed the belt tension was loose. I changed to 824. Helped, however, when I check the tension, making sure it was only moving down by 1inch or less. It did, but then when I did check the belt loosened up easily, meaning the belt in the rear pull moved with ease down into the pulley. Does this mean the Torque spring is leak?


Do one change and check results.

I also, figured it that since the torque spring is bad, that's why I haven't been able to get to 8000 RPMs. As soon as I changed that I can tell I can now get to the max power band once I get the spring replaced I should be able to tube the CVT.

I have been hindered by the 2 problems. The auto choke, and the spring. Both bad, both not allowing me to tube the carb and the CVT properly

The tension spring is weak, replace with a 1k and 1 k springs for the clutch shoes, all is well.

I found out that my compression had changed. Used to be at 210 which is high. Now it's at 90. So I took off the valve cover and checked the valve clearance at Top Dead Center. Still set correctly .004. So I must have a piston ring issue? There's no smoke so I'm confused.

Try to check again with a different gauge.
Smart move only changing one thing at a time. A lot of folks dive in head first and when an issue arises that don't know where to look....

I was wrong the compression was 180 like it is supposed to be. I did intial test wrong.
