Questions for those who know: do I need to use sealent for the head gasket? From what I can gather online it looks like I shouldn't be using any at all.
Also should I turn over the engine at any point in putting the camshafts back in? I thought about just returning them back to the position they came out, but I'm not exactly sure if that's going to that easy.
The guide I've used to disassemble the engine has been this one: http://forums.ninja250.org/viewtopic.php?t=74552 which has a guide on Timing valves. I'm just afraid of screwing anything up. |
Don't use any gasket maker/sealant for your head gasket.
Don't worry about screwing anything up it's not that hard of a process, albeit a little time consuming.
I'll pm you the shop manual for this process if motofool hasn't already.
