nirvanafan98:
Great information for a weekend mechanic like me . :-D
5hundo:
I had a question does anyone know for a fact the dual ring piston kit for 88-04 model kx500s will fit my 86 Kx 500?
Jonnymotox:
I'm putting my 98 KX500 top end back together and I'm wondering if I should use anything on the Head stud Threads?
Reason for asking is I torqued the head with fresh gaskets, Base and Head gaskets and everything seems fine until I fill the radiators and while I'm putting the Pipe on I see Air bubbles coming out of one of the head studs. There is no Pressure in the cooling system! I'm also using "Orange" Antifreeze is this the problem?
I'm baffled should I use something on the Head stud threads to seal it up?
Thanks
