TIGS Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 hello any help would be great My son has a spanish bike with a ybr125 engine in it,as you all know this engine is air cooled. He ran the bike low on oil,i mean low less than a 1/4 of a litre,which has brought on a tapping from top end tappets are fine,cam and bearings are ok,i have put oil straight on to the inlet tappet,ran the bike and the noise has gone,but 10 minutes later,it returned,so it can only be that when he ran low on oil,he brought some crap up from the sump.. So my now for my question...is there anyway of clearing the blockage without sripping the head off,can i use a oil flush or would that do more damage,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are you? Where do you come from? (this is a worldwide forum) What do you want from us? A one of question/answer? Or will you contribute your knowledge and experience to help other Yamaha bikers? YOC is a community, we all help each other. maybe I'm coming over a bit strong, but we get so many one offs here seeking a solution to their problem and don't even have the courtesy to reply when they get the answer.

Hopefully you will get some help with your question, we are a friendly lot, but, would you like it if somebody seen your bike outside your house, knocked on your door and said, "excuse me mate, but" Anyway nuff said. Welcome to the forum Kev If you see me in Knights Templar I will let you buy me a pint of strongbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
