Leak in motor!!!

[Nathan44]

Today i went out to start my T-Maxx to find a leak in my motor!

It looks like it is leaking right above the piston and it is spraying gas out by the carb! Is this gonna be repairable and seal able or am i gonna have to get a new motor???

 

[bigjay]

Depends. Check you're head screws. Have you had the engine hot lately?

 

[Nathan44]

Yeah in fact when i run it its been getting way to hot!

 

[bigjay]

you probably warped the head

leeking motor?

well my t-maxx has an engine. why would yours have a motor?

 

[Nathan44]

I've been trying to break it in lately but not having any luck.

i think I'm just gonna by a Savage, i like those!

i know iam beeing a hard a$$ about wether you have a motor or an engine. but sometimes ill say it wrong. if it was mine i would get a piston and sleeve and a new head. i put new piston and sleeve in mine somtime back. its not to hard. the notch in the bottom of the piston goes toward the flywheel. the wrist pin keeper isnt easy, but be sure its in all the way go to car parts house and get permatex brand ultra slick engine assembly lube item #81950 and put a light coat on the inside parts. it will smoke as the engine heats up, so dont let that bother you.
