Thought i'd have at the minimoto from the comfort of my own bedroom

I took it apart months ago before I even had a bike and didn't bother putting it back together for some reason, thought I just took the pull start off but apparently I unbolted the cylinder, gave it a bit of a pull and the cylinder flies off with the piston

Now I can't get the bugger back in!

Here's a question... piston rings, should they have gaps in them?

I'm guessing pieces of piston ring shouldn't fall out the cylinder?
Dun goofed

Yes, they should have gaps. Also make sure the ends of the rings don't slide past one of the ports. The piston should have little pins in the grooves to help you line them up

You haven't got the camera set to night mode or low resolution have you?

Not sure if the engines are the same but mine is the chinky dirt bike type thing... just haven't got round to listing it on ebay yet though

p.s. alpha.

After careful deliberating on BCF Chat, we've decided that you need to be culled.

sorry dude.

prolly caused when the ring got damaged and caused the piston to be on the piss.

Either that or tiny bits of ring got caught in the gap and grinded away.

if it's only light scoring one can fix with some polishing. else it be new barrel tiem.

Silly question, when you say you can't get the piston back in Alpha, what's stopping it going back in?

If it's just the rings then why not press them with one hand and drop the barrel on with the other
