helped a ton, brand new predator 212 non hemi, removed governor, air filter, arc billet flywheel, 22lb valve springs, just fired it up ran good for 10mins or so, shut her off changed oil i let it sit for awhile then when i cranked it up again it backfired (thought it was a carb problem thought i flooded her) and the pull cord slapped against the motor like how u described in the end of vid, tried the lash tighter than it was and its running again👍🏽👍🏽

Very helpful video I used to install my pair! Engine runs better than ever!!!

Thanks dude…the explanation at the end helped me. I couldn’t figure out why it was kicking back. I’ll be good to go now.

So before you install the springs, what else have you installed on that motor?

👍

how would you put the piston “top dead center” like you said ? and what tool did you use

Great video, just wanted to know what length your pushrods are ? And if they are chromemoly, maybe if you could send a link that would be great.

Yo bro i have a hot265 cam and 26lb springs what lash should i set it to the .003?? Or .002 because its not starting and its kicking back i have billet flywheel timmed and billet rod plus a mikuni jetted

Great job! I got a 212 clone and noticed I only had a valve cap on the exhaust side. 99% sure I didn’t drop the intake side into the motor but don’t know why there would only be on 1 side. So I’m worried I have to crack the motor in case I dropped it.

Ay bro when u put ur 26lb vave springs did u put that lil copper valve seal und r ther the intake valve spring or u dont need it ?

I'm currently running 22lb valve springs with a 265 cam...it runs great a low and mid rpm range but once I'm wot, it will fall on its face and start cutting out.. I believe I'm still valve floating, so I'm about to upgrade from 22lb to 26lb springs..do you think this upgrade will solve my wot issues??..I'm currently running a stage 4 kit..with the billet arc flywheel which is already advanced..plus a 24mm mukuni carb...so I don't think it's a fuel issue...

Did you do anything to get the locknut off so easily? I tried but my wrench slipped and I cut myself. Had to get stitches lol

What was the tool you used to get the 26lb spring back in?

Can we get a link for springs. Thanks for the video

What tool did you use to install the new springs?5:30 thanks

Can you use 22lb springs on a stock mini bike?

I have a 196cc clone motor that I’m putting 18lb springs in it. What number should I lash the valves out too?

The Manual says intake 0.004 and exhaust 0.006
