Spree Big Bore Kit

Post by btosi »

I purchased a Spree big bore kit on Ebay from chopchop123. The kit comes with two base gaskets, is one a spare?

Thanks

I think you are supposed to use BOTH base gaskets.
The seller is a member here as well...he is tazland001
I am surprised there is not instructions pertaining to this issue.
Some of the other members know about this...someone will speak up, surely.
Send a pm to tazland001 in the meantime, or go back to eBay and ask him... :urban:

Thanks Motormike, that was sort of what I was thinking. I should have stated that I had not received the kit yet and was looking at the picture on ebay. I'm sure there will be some instructions included.

Thanks Again

The second gasket is to shim the cylinder to get the piston not to contact the head ;-) you may or may not need it. There should be an instruction sheet in the box. Follow those instructions to the letter for break in and for installation and you will have a happy bbkit :-)

1: add faucet connection to locomotive hole
2 slide pipe over happy shaft
3 enjoy off road excite.

taz includes his own instructions with his kits, or he used to anyway.
