f4i transmission
Re: f4i transmission
you're 100% sure right, nothing is worst than soggy cereal, especially it it's cocoa pebbles.
anyway, definitly not a vaccum leak. i've already checked everything.
by the "lower" gasket, i meant not the head cover rubber gasket...but the $60 crush gasket that goes between where the head meets the block...aka the combustion chamber.
i was just hoping this wouldn't happen, cause now i have to spend ANOTHER $60 on the gasket.
this little project has cost me roughly $200 so far...
p.s. sorry about your cereal. find me a new head gasket for cheap and i'll ship you a new box + milk.

you are a good cat, but it's ok.....cereal can be replaced for cheaper than 200 bones dude. ****...yea the gead gasket is leaking with a new gasket...**** man , that aint right!
best repair fo that, get new head bolts and gasket, check the head and block with a straight edge or ruler, make sure the mating surfaces are A-1 man....i never heard of that happening unless the gasket was blown to ***. ....check and double check!!hope you get that right man.

no bolts tho...
talked to the dealership dept at honda and they said the had may be warped...and this new head is off my buds bike which got oil starved so it's possible.
i think i'll either:
A: take the head to a machine shop and have them check it out
B: fix my old head(spark plug stripped) and put her back together
****, this looks like another week of work.
Re: f4i transmission
just ordered another head gasket

yup....i wonder if they can plane a few thousands of an inch off the head that may be warped???? no sure what the story could be on that. but it could fix it. getting the spark plug hole fixed is an option just for another spare head in case **** happens again.
let me know what happens.
Re: f4i transmission
i just thought of something.
please correct me if i'm wrong.
HOW CAN THERE BE OIL COMING FROM WHERE THE HEAD MEETS THE BLOCK????
isn't that the combustion chamber? where the air/gas mix and ignite? i thought there isn't supposed to be any oil in there in the first place?
please correct me if i'm wrong.

the head is fed from a line i would think, but when the piston moves up in the cylinder the splash method of oiling is supposed to happen....but yea...that aint right man. sounds like a warped head or gasket problem. oil may travel through a capillary back to the crankcase, if ur head gasket isn't mating totally flat it'll let it seep out. if it's running out like a sieve...then you got mega issues with that motor....gunna have to check the plabne on that.....dry fit it, see if you can notice large gaps etc...

it's not "pouring" out....but slightly leaking from multiple points...enough to provde a decent amount of smoke to blind the rider....and all the leaks are in the front of the head...
Re: f4i transmission
YA GOT THE HEAD ON UPSIDE DOWN/BACKWARDS /INSIDE OUT BRO!

yea...gunna have to make sure no burrs or dents/dings on the head as well as the block mating surface......oil is getting out tho...it has to be dealt with dirty feet. if the surfaces have defects, the gasket has dents or is crushed in a spot you will get that problem. c'mon man, take it off and check it out...get your torque specs and re-re the gasket and chain timing....
get a friend to help, just an excuse to drink beers Re: f4i transmission

...can't get out of bed tho caz i ate **** yesterday and fucked up my foot.
Re: f4i transmission
dude don't eat ****. it's not healthy. cereal dude, cereal.....

take a break already.....so you been riding with the oil leak???WTF man! you are some funny guy dirty feets.
so while your down and out, anything broken, WTF were you trying to do this time???

honestly tho dude, you got 2300 posts, have a pik doing a frogger one up.....and you never did a head job before??? kinda odd....maybe you are just that good eh???!! hahaha
when you take her apart, just check the edge of the gasket, head and block....make sure they are super clean and oil free, be carefull when you drop(loose term) the head back on and retorque in sequence.

come one mayng, i thought you're smarter than than....i have more than 1 bike.
here is the post on the crash(wrong section so it might get deleted soon)

as for the head bolts, there was not torque sequence...the only part with a "sequence" was the one for the cam holder.
p.s. the best is cereal +PLUS+ ****...with fat free milk. yummmm

torque the inner bolts first with your spec, ie-25 ft/pds.....and work your way out. the 4 center most bolts in a "X" pattern then the other bolts criss crossing the head dude...hope you heal up and fix that bike man. eat lots of **** dude!!!
Re: f4i transmission
never do. haha
so i went back to the garage last night.
and I feel like a dip-**** now.
i was about to start gutting the bike again to get the new head-gasket in...i said **** it lets heard it run 1-more-time....fire it up, no leaks, after 5-minutes, i see smoke and it progressively gets worst....
turned up the idle to 5k
kept looking at there was no leak...hit rev-limiter a few times too...i thought either that, or i was blind. i inspected the head all around and the oil pan...i was startin to trip out...i guess at some point i had gotten oil on the headers (they are wrapped so it absorbs oil pretty good)
but i'm 100% sure the 1st time i started the bike, oil came out of the head (where the head-gasket is).
after another 20 mins of the bike running at 5k idle, the smoke stopped.


















**** YEA!
wadda think? WTF could have happened? is this magic or wutt?

MAGIC DUDE.....JUST RIDE THE FUSKING THING AND DON'T LOOK! oit may have run down and collected along the base gasket and heat burnt uit off, could have come from up higher. rule of thumb, folloe w the leak to it's source, ....but i am really happy that the ******* thing is A-1 now!

so popst up some piks, i just got my parts and the bike should be running anyday now...

wuuuut wuuut

i'm gonna take it for a spin today and pop some whoolies on it. i'f no leak, then i'm gonna put everything back together....THEN i'll post up pics once my bike is back to looking sexy
Re: f4i transmission
that is awesome man, you did it right, no second guessing at all....make sure the nuts and bolts are tight and i think ur all good man. glad to hear!
