It was idling for 10 seconds when I heard a click noise and it shut off. Now it won’t turn over and after I took it apart the cranks seems stuck, is a za50 worth a rebuild?
Crank is not moving on za50 help
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
You seized the motor. Was there oil in the gas?
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
You can rebuild the ZA with an aftermarket crank and do bearings/seals while you're there but you'll need to deal with the shimming. Or sell the ZA (still lots of good tranny parts in there people need/like to have extras of) and fund an e50 with the funds. A lot easier if its your first motor rebuild
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
Did you replace the shift pucks when you got it? Transmission fluid? Pre-mixing 50:1? If the conrod is not moving you either seized your big end bushing or your clutch side of things has major issues
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
Yes 50:1
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
Did you have the clutches out to flip second? The clutch nut may have backed out.
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
doesnt sound seizy to me, Now whens the last time a motor been burned up idling, ok lots but theres no piston damage so it couldnt been that hot. open up the covers something probably jambed.
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
Check flywheel side first
Re: Crank is not moving on za50 help
Exactly, coil came loose maybe and jammed the flywheel or something like a nut, screw, washer is stuck in the fly wheel
