I install all new valves and a new coil on the 1987 Honda 250x and attempt to start it one last time. Will it run? #Honda, #FirtStart,

Don’t paint the plastics! Wet sand them, then take a heat gun to the plastics and move around quickly. It’ll bring the color back to the plastics!!

@nicolechewning2376 3 года назад

Good idea!

@mmaaddict78 3 года назад

Just don’t heat the plastics too much or it will evaporate the stuff that makes it flexible and then the plastic will become brittle.

@Erlov71 3 года назад

Or they can be polished after wet sanding too

@jasonrutherford1722 3 года назад

Ive just seen a guy that owns a garage in Ma were im from Mcnasty customes he buffs the plastic and ive seen heat gun as well it works the balls but like anything that comes out right it takes time but definatly way to go

@actual_brog 3 года назад

Buffing pad with no compound is like magic for getting the shine back. You should get a red seat cover in my opinion, return it to more of an original look, and to me the blue looks a bit weird.

@dogtownbrogers2796 3 года назад

Good job! Make your life easier, Grab a condiment ketchup squirt bottle from the dollar store and make a fuel bottle. Fuel line fits over the spout pretty well, not hard to hang up with some tape and a wire and you won’t have to keep pouring gas down the supply line.

@nealramsey4439 3 года назад

I have a high compression piston as well. I've always just used premium and added an bottle of octane boost. I don't know if it's good enough or not but have had any problems yet. Race gas is hard to find and it's at least $8 a gallon for 110 octane, when I have found it. I don't want a ride on the hill to be 20 bucks every time I go.

@ryanmicklo1616 3 года назад

Depending on what compression ratio you have you should be able to run 93 with no issues

@gabewest305 3 года назад

If you run that high octane you have to do a little bit of modifications and tweaking and tuning

@ryanmicklo1616 3 года назад

@@gabewest305 91 is recommended for a stock engine.

@ianrochon1728 3 года назад

Go to your hardware store, purchase TOLUENE(paint section). Toluene is what oil companies use to raise octane in gasoline. The ratios are easy to find online. I ran toluene for years in my stage 4 WRX.

@jonmccormick8683 3 года назад

Forget all that kicking = just tow it in 2 or 3rd (250cc) = If that don't start it nothing will. If it does -keep it running as long as possible to break it in again and watch it for issues (leaks, etc). Sounds like a Honda now. You can pressure test with both sets of valves (4) closed or do a compression test.

@troyjweimer 2 месяца назад

Great job not giving up. I have a 92 250x with a new high compression piston and I have been struggling to get it started again. Watching your video has given me hope it will run again very soon.

@corporalclegg914 3 года назад

Nice Work, Dude! I don’t know why it took so many kicks after its latest assembly & checks to fire. I’ve only known these engines to be BulletProof & never sluggish to start. it seems to idle at a higher RPM, but I’ve never had one with a high-compression piston installed. I can’t tell you how many miles I put on this type engine when I was 11yrs old to 16yrs old, but I ran mine (250 Fourtax) 300+ days a year for 5 years and Loved Her! my bff had the 250X. that’s probably why I was rooting for this machine to give in & do what she does. thanks for showing me how to restore mine, as always.

Vinegar and a pack of copper bbs, combine both into the gastank and shake it like heck!!! For the plastics use a wet sand paper, it HAS TO BE BLACK SAND PAPER!!! Atleast 1000 grit and sand the plastics itll smooth it out alot

@Thewatson77 3 года назад

Good find 👍🏼 Goes to show that we can all get a little rushed at times.

@bigcaputo09 3 года назад

I have a feeling is the piston that made it so hard to start. But thinking about how much material you had to grind out of the head. The compression possibly would of been lower than factory with a new stock piston.

@bigcaputo09 3 года назад

Seems to start good now. Plus i like the white better!

@dennisbrooks186 3 года назад

Hell yeah man!!! She lives again haha. Deff stick with white. Painting the rear white is quickest and easiest way. But if you sanded the back fenders from 180 or 220 grit ip to like 1500 then buffed em they would look brand new and those lines would go away. But paint works too on a lower budget build. Stick with the white, blue seat cover. I would do bumpers red along with handle bars, footpegs, and a few more small parts red to make the red be like an accent color. Then you would have a sweet red white and blue American looking quad haha. Nice job man!!!!

@cwthemachinist 3 года назад

The white looks good. Lot of work to bring that motor back huh! You can use a orbital sander and start with like 400 grit disks. Sand those plastics back to smooth. You gotta work up through the grits. 800, 1000, then you can buff it back to a shine. It's a lot nicer than painting.

@nnnnnmmmmmooooo5231 3 года назад

A little tip use a pressure washer to peel the paint done it many times and dosent dull up the plastics

@joshbannon8989 3 года назад

White looks better. You can order race gas from Sunoco. They ship it to you in cans. Or get it from a Sunoco gas station. If you have any close buy. You can also get 93 and buy octane boosters from part stores. But nothing smells better than cam 2 in the morning.

@stopcensoringmyfreespeech3280 3 года назад

The white color is a lot better than black. It actually seems to run great on 93 octane. It is purring. You can get octane booster at the parts store.
