Sorry I corrected to WC-1 that was a type-o. There is an air filter da going there I just need to get some hose and clamp a and connect it. Thanks for the link.
I’m sorry I’m not super mechanically inclined what are you referring to with the valve lash intake and exhaust? How do I adjust them?
thanks again,
Eric
The Joy of owning a Whizzer Ya gotta learn how to work on it
Get ready for a crash course in setting the valves on a Whizzer
How to find TDC @ Spark to set the valve lash
Remove the belt guard and the primary belt
Remove the carb
Disconnect the compression release cable from the valve cover
Take the valve cover off. Careful with the gasket you can reuse it.
Take the Spark Plug out.
Turn the flywheel by hand counterclockwise Watch the lifters and valves go up and down
When the Exhaust valve opens and closes this is the exhaust stroke
When the Intake valve open and closes this is the intake stroke
As the Intake valve closes you want to turn the flywheel just a little more to where the flywheel trigger plate lines up with the P/U trigger
This is the end of the compression stroke and the beginning of the power stroke. Spark @ TDC (actually 17* before TDC)
This is when you set the valve lash - Spark @ TDC
First check the valve lash ya might not have to adjust the valves
Tools
Philips screwdriver for the belt guard
10mm for the carb nuts
8mm for the valve cover bolts
3 small wrenches to adjust the valve lash 1@ 8mm and 2@ 10mm
Feeler gauge set
Adjusting the lash
Hold the lifter with the 8mm and loosen the jam nut with the 10mm. While holding these wrenches with one hand use the other hand and turn the tappet bolt with a 10mm wrench. Clockwise to increase the lash and counterclockwise to decrease the lash. It will take ya a few tries to get the hang of it.
Ya don't have to turn the tappet bolt much only very very little little bit to make a difference
Use a .008" feeler gauge on the Intake and use a .010" feeler gauge on the Exhaust
The feeler gauge should slip in with a slight resistance.
To check if ya got the valve lash set correctly use the next size smaller feeler gauge and it should fit loose Use the next size larger feeler gauge and it shouldn't fit in
The correct feeler gauge should fit with a slight resistance but not be tight or too loose.
To check the valve lash that was just set turn the engine over by hand a few times then line up TDC @ spark and double check the valve lash with the feeler gauges to make sure ya got it correct.
NOTE: When putting the valve cover back on The exhaust valve has to be open so the compression release will be installed correctly
