[QUOTE="razorboy, post: 1224679, member: 62244"] Hey Guys, I had a set of rings overheat and the bottom ring end gap hooked on the intake opening and snapped a piece out of the piston. I had to replace everything but I have no idea where the piece of piston went? I decided to flush out the crank area to be sure nothing got down there ready to raise hell when I get her running again. My question concerns flushing methods. I noticed that there was a small amount of oil on the crank as I spun it around. I was under the impression that the crank was dry? Does it get lubrication from the fuel mixture? I decided to use my 2-stroke premix as a flush which is going ok but now I am starting to feel the crank getting a little tighter. This is probably because I am removing the trace oil that was in there. If this is the case, what should I use to lube the crank area again? Should I dump a little 2-stroke oil in there just to keep things slick? Cheers Bernie [/QUOTE]
