| Quoting Terminator20 | I can tell you what two of your probelms are considering they both happened on mine and mine is a gonner once again. You said you have oil all over one side of the engine, if this is on the carb side of the engine, this oil is consistant of a leak around the manafold. If the manafold is loose, it will leak gas/oil all over that side of the engine and cause the hard start issue you seem to have. There are two bolts that hold the manafold onto the engine. First remove the carb to get to the manafold and tighten them bolts and then put the carb back on. On mine, I had a sheared bolt inside the engine that I had to get a extractor to get it out! OMG!  |
Whats a manafold?  lol I'm a comp nerd not a mechanic

The clanging sound you hear is most likely to do with the cylinder area and the piston is knocking. It will keep doing this till the piston gets totally fu** up. As you guys already know, I had to do a major repair cause the engine overheated and galled and cracked the piston and chewed up the intake side of the head. I would not be surprised if this is what happens to your engine soon. |
Hmm I wonder if my engine did the same thing... I was driving in about 97F (118F after the humidity is added) temperatures for about an hour pretty much full throttle the whole time... |
