Tell the specs.1

Jetting is the key... what intake? might need a better exhaust maybe...

Zack, its only for break in and i have something planned for later. I never had a kit run so hot...getting scared to run it.

Jetting is not a problem, I welded up an intake that matches the carb.

anything else?

btw, More in more out... so a stock pipe is going to make it run hot. good luck, I have a extra of rings if you need them.

Big main jets won't matter if you aren't opening the throttle and the needle is mixed lean. You shouldn't be running a stock pipe for break in, you should be breaking it in the way you intend to run it.

Yeah I've been running it rich so 4 strokes and smokes up a storm, needle is fat too.

My theory on running the stock pipe is to keep it out of a major powerband I want to break it in super slow. These kits looks like their waiting to seize!

You guys think a better pipe will help keep it cooler huh?

thanks for the input

Joe, Don't really need any peugeot stuff now thanks though.

You need an exhaust that is big enough to allow your moped to exhale.

ive been running the same kit for the past 1000 miles.

i have never been able to touch the cylinder after going for a ride even just a short one. sounds totally normal to me

what oil to fuel mix? too rich of oil will lean out the mixture.

Did you make sure to put the fan and shrouds back on? It'll run hot without that air flowing over it.

Thanks guys,

I'll try another pipe!

sweet, you can pick it up next month

I think tow big point's that needs to be looked in to or timing and compression or as my dad wood say hot and hotter.

#1

Timing the stock V1 timing mark is at 23 deg BDC.

It kind of works like this The carb is a flame thrower .

The more time you give the flame it the hotter things/cylinder/head get.

We have no vacuum advance to adjust timing with or BIG flame throwers giving less flame/heat timing at WOT.

So in part we need to set or timing for WOT .

So by reducing flame burn time in the combustion chamber we reduce BTU/heat transfer to cylinder/head.

Thar or three ways to do this.

The biggest is spark timing try like 18deg's BTDC.

Next wood be Ex system back presser.

last exhaust port timing give it more timing up it 5 or 10 deg's.

And the bones is by dumping more flame in to Ex system.

The exhaust chamber loves it hot.

As RPM's go UP and UP it gets hotter and hotter

As it gets hotter presser goes up .

More heat and presser make shock waves move faster moving the power band up in RPM's at the same time = more power.

#2

The higher the compression makes all hotter .

Compression you don't need HI Compression with a well tuned EX system ports and carb.

A good EX system will supercharge/raise compression by over stuffing the combustion chamber.

10 or even 9 to 1 shod be fine.

Bat back

Ops

I o most forgot Higher compression makes things burn faster to.

Giving faster heat /BTU transfer to cylinder & head.

Bat back

hahaha i have this kit on my v1 without the fan and with a stock magnum pipe and fully advanced timing. 1000 miles later and no seize its fiiiiine
