My radiator on my 92 was getting pressurized after putting my engine together with oem gaskets and it would puke out like a cup of coolant then stop once it was under the fins. it was not burning coolant and ran amazing by the way.
did a rad pressure test and it held 16lb for over 20 mins
So I installed a oem 85-86 head gasket since my piston is 69.25mm thinking air was going under the gasket and into the rad since my piston is bigger than stock gasket accepts and it seemed to be less pressurized but that gasket failed within an hour or 2 and started burning coolant so my bike is parked now waiting for me to do something.
i was going to buy another 85-86 gasket and using a different head but maybe i should just tear it apart and send to someone??? to have it checked for warps?
i read that air could be leaking around the sleeve and if it is, is that fixable without putting in a new sleeve in?
my cylinder is ported and I don't want to have to scrap it and start over.
if i need to send it out who could i send it to?
if it is leaking around the sleeve could I get it nikasil plated and keep my porting?
I just am not sure what to do at this moment and need to talk about it
sorry for asking to many questions at once
thank.
