Hi. I was wondering if anybody could help me with some piston questions?
I just picked up a used jug and piston for my 97 xtc off ebay. The jug seems all good but the piston seems to have a smaller hole on the intake side then the one i took out. Is this piston maybe from a lower horse motor? Im thinking whether weisco or oem or whatever they should have the same porting on the piston, correct? Thanks for any help.
 
Ya its a twin. Jug is the same but the one piston has a half inch hole on the intake and the other a much bigger rectangle hole in the same place.
 
I just looked at a factory piston and it has the small hole in it, so the rectangle must be a mod of some sort.
 
Yah a mod maybe ? I was thinking the same. If you look inside the piston where the small hole is there is an exact rectangle shape as my other two pistons.
So, if I order two oem pistons they are going to show up with these small holes?
 
Haha I just noticed my mini class under my name. funny stuff ! And also my polaris listed as my sled. Well its true BUT my motocross is and always will be a blue two smoker. So any help from you yami sledders is appreciated. I`m just helping out a vmax guy in trouble. Thanks :2strokes:
 
So i guess it would be a terrible decision to run the different pistons?
I dont have a milling machine but i do have a die grinder and a lot of patience.
HAha
 
you could probably do it on a drill press too. but honestly, a machine shop will bang it out in minutes. I dropped mine off thinkin it would be a few days and he called me before I got home. turned around, went back, $25
