[QUOTE="Yogurt, post: 685091, member: 16961"] Once after installing a brand new wiseco piston and top-end in my 00 CR125, I started it up and ran it at idle, then after about 1 minute it blew up and died. Oh crap I thought! I immediately tore it all back down, and realized it sucked the circlip right out, and ran it up and down the cylinder walls real nicely. I put the circlip in all the way, but I forgot to turn the circlip so the end wouldn't be sticking up in the groove. So I had to send my cylinder out to US Chrome to have it replated, cuz it had deep gouges in the walls. I took the whole motor out, and flushed out the lower end with parts cleaner, and tipped it upside down to get the circlip pieces out. Then I had to buy another top-end kit. That was one expesive top-end job I did. I really hate doing things twice. [/QUOTE]
