a freind of mine has a 250F, and he was shocked to find his air filter had let dust into his engine. the foam seal had perished around the bottom of the filter. looking inside the air box boot, there was slight traces of dust, but only around the area of the damaged filter. you could see the dust after a finger was wiped along the surface, but none could be seen where the boot meets the carburettor.
i would like to reassure him that his engine isn't heading for the grave, but i don't know if this is true. does anyone have any experience in this matter? what can be done to check for engine damage? compression test? how many pounds of compression should this engine have? it hasn't done very much work.
thanks for your time my friends.
