Well, after only 4 days..... my TB 88 quit running. I have been tuning it the past couple of days and it's been running strong..... with just a slight low end bog(like most TB 88's). Anyway, I was going down a long downhill..... going for a top speed run when it failed me. I was topped out and held the shifter up(for nuetral) to coast a few extra mph's out of it(I have a speedo). Right when I lifted the shifter and let off the gas...... POP! It died. It has no compression. I thought maybe it was a broken cam chain but I removed valve covers and valves are turning when I kick it over (with my hand).
So, I just thought I would post up what happened and see who can guess what the problem is.... before I tear it down and find out the answer tommorrow. My guess is a bent valve.
I was quite surprised at a failure this soon with such a solid kit.
