Just got my cylinder back from re-plating and assembling power valve, should it snap shut just with the spring after re-assembling or does it need the governor to help as mine feels rough even though everything is cleaned up and I have used a silicon spray to lube.

better use wd40 or little bit 2stroke oil for assembling... i think you will feel the diference...

I use Bel-Ray moly assembly lube when I put them together. Seems to work good.

any lube would work there, except silicon-sprays, that works better on plastic and rubber parts.

i personally prefer to use 2stroke oil for assembling crank, piston and cylinder-parts for the right pre-lubing, because it would be the same oil that works there when the engine is running ...

Cheers for that, I will clean it out and try some 2 stroke, I have been riding the old 75 & 79 that long I forgot all about power valves.
