Did you oil cylinder a bit before slide piston into it? And why from the
top?

Thanks for your great videos, I did this job today while fitting new
Stanless steel Pushrod Tubes.

Cool job dudes; the official handbook suggests a staggered geometrical
orientation of the rings.

Daniel Dicke says:

Hi Ed. In the video you made a comment about the head gaskets that they
have no left or right side. This is wrong. The orientation of the holes for
the pushrods is sligthly asymmetrical. The gasket will fit from each side
but in one orientation the hole for the pushrods does not align exactly
with the pushrod protection tubes. But anyway absolutely great videos.
Greetings from Germany Daniel

Hi Chris. Thanks for your super video´s – very informativ. I´d like to ask
you, if you could make a klip were you show “how to fix a cylinderhead” of
a R 80 GS / changing of valves and cummins. The work shops here in Europe
really take a lot of money for this. Thank you in advance and greetings
from Denmark! BR Edgar

Yard the cardboard out of there…

Chris Harris says:

The cardboard absorbs oil leaks and keeps the engine quiet! 🙂

Logjam5 says:

Have heard about copper made head gaskets, Chris? I bought a set off of
ebay, but haven’t used them yet.

Chris Harris says:

Thank you! Everyone’s comments and compliments make the production of these
videos worthwhile. Thank you and Happy Holidays, Chris

Chris Harris says:

Hi Logjam, these engines rarely have head gasket leaks so I don’t know that
a copper head gasket would be of much benefit versus a stock one but if the
price were less or the same it wouldn’t hurt.
