    Man, that looks like a blast! Wish I had done some of that when I was younger. Didn't Yamaha build some carts or engines at one time?
    Google "Legends car Racing" they have a Yamaha motorcycle engine in them.

    Then the argument(s) can ensue about whether the head bolts are to be scrapped or retained for reuse.
    I didn't look at no stinking diagrams! No time to study. Trying to close out the miserable 2017. Everyone wants money. Heathens.

    Lots of junk in that motor. Any way you want to slice it.

    Where is everyone? Yam? Rod? Etc

One track I went to the drivers were not kind to non local drivers and I got to meet several hay bails up close and personal. My son said , man you killing the hay bails ! So it stuck as my screen name on any forum I use.

    not sure what you are seeing in your motor is just salt

    I did a search here (and with the NEW site), could not find it. Perhaps someone else has the link.

    In any case, it's basically lemon powder mixed with water then pumped thru the engine. Some take off the LU, hook up a small electric pump hook to the water intake tube.
    Then put a "catch container" under the engine, thermostat out, and let it pump away. Previous pictures of the results were very impressive.

    Rodbolt (MT here), posted here as well it was used in navy.


    An interesting video / post with pic's:

    You can get yourself one of these borescopes for less than $100 Great thing for looking in your engine water passages.

    Better than tearing everything apart and breaking a bunch of bolts off...
