They don't ever stop working when they're running! My guess is that once the thing cools down, all the su[per hot metal warps, so seals do not seal, etc... That is especially true in a 2 stroke with no valves... I saw that someone suggested on list that the piston or rod is stuck. It's not- fact that you can crank it proves that it is not. And no wonder that you got no vacuum after removing the head. You have to put that thing on carefully with a gasket to get vacuum. You're going to have to measure the wall and the piston. If you'r not experienced, then it would be cheaper for you to take it to a machine shop rather than do it yourself. If you have a spare piston, than you can CAREFULLY clean up the wall with a tool (I dont know how to call it in English) that is made for the purpose. You spin it around in a drill and go up and down- the guy who sells it to you will tell you how. Don't reuse the old piston without checking it. You can look at the crack bearings to see it they're worn. You'll know. Dotan Cohen http://lyricslist.com/lyrics/artist_albums/36/anthony_marc.php Anthony, Marc Song Lyrics
