[QUOTE="84cr125flyer, post: 993869, member: 35501"] I'm going to throw my two cents in and may have covered some of what was already discussed but, I looked in Eric Gorr's book "Motocross and Off-Road handbook" second and third edition and according to this it was, in his words, a "loss of lubrication." He gives three reasons: 1, "No pre-mix oil" 2, "serparation of the fuel and pre-mix oil in the fuel tank and 3, "Water passing through the air-filter and washing the oil film off the piston skirt." Without knowing exactly the circumstances this may all be just speculation on my part. As pointed out before there were some issues with parts being worn out and needing to be replaced so, all these issues together with a loss of lubrication, in my opinion, added up to the seizure. :think: [/QUOTE]
