    I didn't have time yet to do the valve clearance/ adjustments but i my issue is that the vaccum for #2 cylinder cannot increase more than 1.6 cmhg to be as the same valvue of the #1 of 2.1. I can decrease it but not increase it, so i'm assuming could be a valve clearance/shim/burnt valve issue. Before going on and doing like the video, i want to confirm that this could one of the solutions. Also, how diffcult is for a guy that's didn't do this procedure before? I'm aware i have to extra-mega-careful with everything but none of the mechanics from my area are willing to do it as it's not rentable for them. Any advice if it's worth doing this for a 50k bike and most probably the previous owner didn't did it ?

    The air in the crank area is actually at a low pressure as air is pulled through the intake ports and into the combustion chamber as the piston moves down. The crank seals keep air (and oil on the clutch side) from being sucked in. That’s why when crank seals wear out, engines runaway with an extremely lean condition, and/or burn transmission oil. Great video though, I really enjoy your work!

    • @MyRestoration1

    Finally a restoration that I"m NOT pissed off about after I watch it! I get so sick of these complete tear downs, where they strip the paint and old chrome, do some sanding, fill me with hope because they've made a great start, and then they put new paint over all the pitted metal they've failed to sand out or even fill and sand. And then have the gall to paint that stupid aluminum paint over the chrome or engine parts that would have been so easy to buff to a brilliant honest metal sheen. Thank you!

      Thanks for your comment. Alloy welds done to the correct current as this one was melt bonds all the way through so it’s not a problem to remove the excess which if you think about it is not assisting in the bond at all so removing it is a no brainer.
