Little compression in spark plug hole?

[YTM200BOY]

I checked to see if my bike would run today. I noticed that when i took the spark plug out i noticed it had very little compression coming out of the hole. Is it possible the woodruff key is gone?? And is there 1 on ech side?? thanks -Joe :twisted: :Bounce :twisted:

[TeamGeek6]

Time for compression gauge, "feels weak" aint enough.

Woodruff keys are not related. Sure they could be shorn, but that doesnt cause low compression. Bad rings do.

[New2ATC]

if you didnt put a compression gauge or anything in the spark plug hole, and the hole was open, youre not going to have that much compression.

[YTM200BOY]

no i put my finger on top of the hole to cut of the outside air and there wasnt much compression at all..

[Unclediezel]

"STUFF" your finger in the hole ---TIGHT--- COMPLETELY COVERED-Blocked _OFF----
Then pull it over--- Does it Puff past your finger?????-- A sheared key would only cause Compression loss if it "Free spins" and never actually spins the motor over.

Time to check valves----

[YTM200BOY]

it puffs a little air up but doesnt get anyair past my finger..

[YTM200BOY]

the motor does spins it backfires alot without any starting fluid....

[Unclediezel]

-It should "KNOCK" your finger out of the way.....100psi at a minimum.
Did anyone mess with your valve adjustments?

[YTM200BOY]

no my finger doesnt even move its not a strong force

[YTM200BOY]

valve adjustments were are they located?

[YTM200BOY]

does the ytm200 EK have valve adjustments??

[Unclediezel]

Under the rocker covers------

Before you get involved----some dissassembly will be necessary at this point---Honestly-- and dont get insulted---- but if you dont have time to devote your full attention to it----dont open it up--

[firefirefire90]

you adjust the valves with feeler guages..Dont you have a manual??! If not, i suggest you go out and buy one, and read over it a few times.

EDIT: valves are in the head and you physically adjust them on the top of the springs if my memory serves me correctly..

[YTM200BOY]

so i take off the side cover "left side or engine" ??? and use the feeler gauges?

[Unclediezel]

Both----Actually---Cam cover also----

There is a mark on your Camshaft--and a mark on the head---line up those marks---then look for the "T" in the timing window---

[Unclediezel]

-----WAIT-------
Is your Comp release Lever stuck open?

[Yamahauler]

diezel...remember, on the YTM200e's, the pull starter cage is splined right on the crank shaft, a sheared key would not affect compression.
Maybe its a stuck valve, or you rings are bad.
or like diezel said, your compression release, is it stuck open?
YTMBOY...Dont try to ajust your valveS, it takes some skill...and without having a manual, or any mechanical experience, you'll never do it.

[Unclediezel]

True ---But Crank sprocket has a key--- Moving into the valve timing area with this one---

[Yamahauler]

Oh yea, you are right. Sorry

[YTM200BOY]

the timing on this thing is perfect tdc :P

[YTM200BOY]

ok guys so its not the woodruff key for sure?? The compression release is the lever on the right side of the engine from the top view... the thing thats stuck on the down possition but when you flip it up it sticks for a pull then goes back down?? i think i got what your saying.. its not stuck.

[Yamahauler]

I hope this is clear enough for you!
If not, click it and I'm sure you'll be able to see it.

[YTM200BOY]

I put so much into this piece of crap.. new eletircal system new bearings new front fender new grab bar new tank new petcock and this thing is driving me nuts.... I think something in the engine is stuck like a reed or something because it wouldnt have a problem starting before i put the new float valve in... I remeber 1 time i heard a pop noice and ever since it didnt have a hard jurk on the pull starter.. like sometimes when you pull it will not come out all the way and you jurk your back lol... any1 no what could be the pop noice?? timing is fine gas is fine spark is fine WTF~

[YTM200BOY]

I have the a manual i bought of ebay i donno what they came out of though

[Yamahauler]

trust me, you dont have a stuck reed:lol:

[firefirefire90]

4 strokes dont have reeds buddy...((Edited))..Pull it behinda truck and pop start it. Are you absolutely sure that gas, electricity, and spark are getting to your engine?

[Yamahauler]

If you have a manual, why arent you reading through that???????
The Clymer goes through everything on that bike.
Take the carb apart, put it together following the manual.
If its not that, I'll bet the shabby electrical work you had done is the culprit.

Read your manual!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tri-ZNate]

his YTM might though since we checked everything else :rolleyes:. Now if you are positive that you have gas, spark, air, and good compression I say you have something messed up. Hope this helps :lol:.


Did you ever try pop starting it? Sometimes thats what it needs. I know my big red will sit for a day and not have spark when I pull the pull rope but if we pop start it, it will start like a gem.

[YTM200BOY]

this pop start thing do i have to be going down hill?? and goin behind a car or truck i just turn the switch to on and get speed from the car and pop it into 1st??

[YTM200BOY]

lol reed im sorry lol yes spark and gas is there for sure

[Tri-ZNate]

yeah get going down a hill or have someone pull you. hold the shifter up in like third gear and when you get going let the shift pop back down. and make sure the on switch is on. give it some gas every now and then and that should get it going. Its like pop starting a car.

[YTM200BOY]

lol i live on top of a fairly steep hill so i shift into 3rd gear at the top of the hill and shift down while giving it gas?

[YTM200BOY]

shifting down the hill and giving it gas until i reach the bottom?

[Tri-ZNate]

FIrst off do you have to be in neutral for this thing to start?

if not get to the top of the hill. Put in second gear and then hold up on the shifter. get going and drop the shift so it is in gear. it will either start up or you may have to give it gas. Its not a hard concept to understand. If you still cant grasp it ask your dad. He will know what I'm talking about.

[YTM200BOY]

i am not sure i have always started it in neutral does any1 on here know? Yes im sure my dad would know what to do but does it have to be in neutral from this model?? im not sure never tried it when it ran

[Yamahauler]

lol reed im sorry lol yes spark and gas is there for sure
First off, how did you determine that there was gas?
I'm just curious.

[YTM200BOY]

i detrimed this because my spark plug had gas on the bottom of it and the carb has a very very very slow leak on the bottom and it will drip every hour 1 time so thats how i no gas is there and yes i pulled it to try and clean it without spark plug in it.. Joe

[Rm250RF900R]

Sounds like your float isnt adjusted properly if theres gas dripping out the bottom.

[Yamahauler]

You do have a BRAND new NGK plug too, right?

[YTM200BOY]

no its a champion around here people suck and odnt have NGK anymore this is the cross refernce.. but i have a new 1 unopened.

[YTM200BOY]

new 1 as in champion the ngk i have is all black on the bottom

[Rm250RF900R]

A champion should work for a few minutes :lol:

[slothminx]

no its a champion around here people suck and odnt have NGK anymore this is the cross refernce.. but i have a new 1 unopened.


Why is it unopened?????????:wondering put it in and see if you have any luck. Usually the simple things that make it not run;)

[Yamahauler]

So, have you been trying it with a new plug this whole time? or with your fouled NGK?

[Yamahauler]

here comes another 5+ page thread :rolleyes:

[YTM200BOY]

lol im sorry for the problems guys lol its the new champ

[Yamahauler]

Ok, wait, you say you HAVE been using a new plug up til now? Or did you JUST put it in.

[YTM200BOY]

i put it in a while back

[Yamahauler]

and is it black, or anything?

Just thought of another thing.
You say your carb overflow is leaking....It could be going into your cylinder and then seeping past your rings and into your oil.

I would check the oil to see that its not full of gas

[Tri-ZNate]

I was thinking when myfriend got his quadsport we would kick and kick and kick but all it would do is backfire. Turned out it had rings that were WAY too small so it couldnt start. Get a compression tester and make sure it has low compression, dont go by yeah I pulled it and I think it has very little compression.

[Yamahauler]

Maybe he bent the con rod because of hydrolic lock....????
That would be bad!
But I dont think you could pull that hard.

[traxxasx]

look ytmboy if you wanna fix it your ganna have to cough out some money some time and some effort. its not going to get fixed by sitting then and one day you come in throw a new plus in it pull it 3 times then leave. then a wekk later take *Edited**Edited* carb off and scrap stuff off it and see if that works. your going for the easy stuff and it doesent seem that you wanna fix your bike fast or anytime soon. *Edited* have made over 6 threads with atleast 6 pages to all with the same problem. why dont you take the advice go to the store cough up 12$ get a compression tester put it in the hole the the string and see what it says. then get back to us with what ya have. you gatta work work work on it to get it done. if you are just tired of it and cant figure it out take it to a shop if ya really like it, maybe someone on the board will help ya fix it if you ASK. dont be scared to ask anything.

[YTM200BOY]

omg i discovered the problem i think! for real this time.. i remember oil and gas on my plug maybe it is getting in the oil! omg thank you how do i get the oil completely out? tip it upside down you said? then put new oil in it?

[YTM200BOY]

when up tip the bike up side down where will oil come out off? i dropped a screw in the carb hole that mounts on the engine block and we got it out but we only tipped it back and stood it on the grab bar and oil spilled all over the ground where does it come out of os i can be aware...

[Rm250RF900R]

There should be a bolt you take out under the trike. Pull that out and all the oil will drain out.

[YTM200BOY]

thank you ill do it tomarrow when its all gone what type do i put in it? whats a good brand?

[YTM200BOY]

and honestly do *Edited* put the oil in the hole that has a washer type thing then a rubber stopper like peice on the base top side of engine? "below carb"????

[Yamahauler]

Wow....I thought you said you had a manual....it describes step by step how to do this, if you can READ you will be fine. If there is gas and oil on your plug, that doesnt mean there is gas in your oil.
NO oil should be on your plug, even if there is gas seeping into the oil.
If you have oil on your plug, your rings could be shot, which would also explain your self-diagnosed "low compression".

You do not tip the bike upside down to drain the oil. THERE IS A DRAIN PLUG!!
THERE IS ALSO A FILTER!!! CLEAN IT!
READ YOUR MANUAL!!!!!! THATS WHAT ITS FOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[YTM200BOY]

Ok guys i checked my MANUAL. The carb is set to the standards so thats perfect 2 1/2 turns out it says so i did i spray a tiny bit of starter fluid in carb when the throttle was half open then i closed the throttle... Ok so i pulled it no go. so then i pulled it holding the throttle half way and then a puff of a flame shot out of the back of the carb! wtf thanks -Joe

[darrel632]

No compression, fires flames out the carb, and this kid has had this thing apart (claimed from the 27 pages of posts) more than once.
Possible causes:
A) 180 degrees out of timing
B) bent valves.
C) Bad cam.
D) burnt a hole through the top of the piston using ether.
D) Can't read and comprehend a Manual.

YTM CHILD
Can you take it to an auto shop (HIgh School) and get a teacher to look at it? This is cheap and effective as most teachers like to help students, its their job.


Is there anyone in Illinios who can go fix this thing and get him to ride, he's closing in on 300 posts and still hasn't got even the basics started on this thing; Compression, timing, plug, carb, etc. etc. etc. Please, PLEASE, someone go fix this and diagnose this trike, please.

If you have a Clymer manual, there is no excuse why you can't figure this out yourself.
I have had no mechanical training, I have just read my manual and tore my bike apart and I figured it out myself.
So, read through the diagnostic part of your manual and try EVERYTHING it says. Then if you have any question, ask here:rolleyes:

[darrel632]

Yamahauler, Your a western Canadian, probably a farm kid who understands how to use a grease gun and a wrench in the first place,if common sence prevailed this thing would have 15,000 k on it starting 3 months ago.
Did you unload your US 90 at christmas or not?

Darrel

[Yamahauler]

Actually, haha, I just started doing mechanics about a year ago, before this, I knew NOTHING. I just taught myself everything I know, since no one in my family even knows what a wrist pin is ;)

Oh and the 90...I'm actually going to restore it, I feel bad for backing out of the deal, but Derrick understood and I'm going to give him that 225 in the summer for free, he thinks he's going to pay $20 for it, but I wont accept.

[YTM200BOY]

is there another form with they dont cut you down and help you awsner your 1 question for ****EDITED*** sake. All i want to know is why the pull start rope doesnt recoil anymore but it still has good compression.

[YTM200BOY]

and yes i did check ****DONT TYPE AROUND THE WORD FILTERS.THEY ARE THERE FOR A REASON**** you guys todl me 2. i just didnt want to get into the heart of the bike all the way because we dont have any tools those comprresion things to put it back together with.. i checked spark gas compression and other crap you said to look 4.

[Yamahauler]

You can try www.3wheeler.org, but I imagine they dont like ignorant people over there either.

OK, the name of your thread is "Little compression in spark plug hole?"
Now you're saying you have good compression....hmm

If you cord isnt recoiling, take the pull starter off and take it apart to see whats wrong, we cant magically know whats wrong with it. This is explained fully in the Clymer manual.

Sorry I cant fix your trike through the computer, that seems what you want....
Last time I check .org guys aren't capable of it either......

[Yamahauler]

and yes i did check 5H1t you guys todl me 2. i just didnt want to get into the heart of the bike all the way because we dont have any tools those comprresion things to put it back together with.. i checked spark gas compression and other crap you said to look 4.
If you have spark, gas, compression, and time. It will run.
Since it doesnt run, obviously you didnt check something right.:idea:

[YTM200BOY]

lol really? lol i pulled it recently with the left side engine cover off and it spun fine.

[YTM200BOY]

****DONT TYPE AROUND THE WORD FILTERS.THEY ARE THERE FOR A REASON. NEXT TIME YOU GET 10 DAYS OFF**** TRIKES im selling it locally for 150-250 and saving for a good reliable honda quad if i dont solve this without putting more into it and ending up with it not working or i might just play with it in the summer when its hotter.

[Yamahauler]

Good idea, We sure wasted a lot of time trying to help you fix your trike :rolleyes:

[YTM200BOY]

awnser me 1 more question could it be a "hot bike" like im saying it doesnt want to start in the winter.. it only started in the dead of summer and if the piston blew a hole how could you find out?

[Yamahauler]

I ahve the exact same bike as you, mine was sitting for three weeks, yesterday, I put the choke on, pulled it twice and it fired right up. Its was also -15 and it has 10W-30 oil in it.

[Unclediezel]

:lol: Now look what youve done----Ya Ticked off the most easy goin guy on the forum---"Aside from Me"------:lol: :lol:

But seriously--folks----I got the answer to all his problems---- My wife is throwing away her Magic 8- ball, so Ill mail it to him, ----"And if you act Now--Ill throw in my smiling Buddah Statue--absolutely free--Just rub and ride--!!!!!

Dude --what are you thinkin----And who told you you needed a compression gauge for reassembly????:wondering

If you lost the keys to your house-and somebody told you that they found them and dropped them in your mailbox-----WOULDNT YOU LOOK IN THE MAILBOX???? Or would you wonder around --homeless and cold ----still swearing that they cant possibly be there, cuz youve already looked?????

It takes time and patience to master a skill like repair, but your there and we arent---I cant smell compression from 800 miles away, so I have to rely on what you tell me....Which up until now has been "Sugar Coated Cow Waste" --
Im serious about sending the 8 ball--but that wont help---cause you probably wouldnt listen to its advice either..

[YTM200BOY]

well yours is not a pile of junk them lol i think i was stupid for saying im going to sell it because i have always wanted a quad but trikes are about the same lol 1 tire... so I think worst come to worst i bring it to the shop owner AGAIN lol i have got to admit he does good jobs but takes forever and he isnt that pricy. or i think..

[YTM200BOY]

lol clediezel wtf i was told you need impacters and other tools that compression stuff in the engine. so your telling me that i could take every peice out of the engine housing and put it back together in a day or 2 just using screwdrivers hammers allen keys and other common stuff? If so damn im dumb

[YTM200BOY]

and guys by the way i didnt telll you this but my choke is odd.. my dad said the guy broke it off or soemthing? i unscrew the thing on top of the carb and then the spring is above this piece i dont know how to discribe it....

[Unclediezel]

That is your throttle valve----The choke is the cable that goes into the side of your carb----And it has to work --or your bike WILL NOT start when its cold

[traxxasx]

ok, well yea its gets really annoyying seeing and reading and replying to 6000 millions threads. YTM200BOY, you should start all over again. Start from when it was running up until it dident. Try to be more clear and spell all your words right and look at your puctuation. Always go threw your post and read it to see if you messed somthing up, because all your reply's are half booty and are not imformative and hard to comprehend. So just take your time and get it done right. The people on this site are going way out of there way to help you out. I think i see the same people always reply in help in your 300 threda you have made. Also like stated above, you said there is "GOOD" compression. So then you tittle you thread "LITTEL" compression in the cylendier. Well that makes no sence at all, see that were you not being informative and not explaining things to were normal people can comprehend this. If i were you i would take some baby powder. Put a medium mound in your right hand. Then slap yourself. lol naw but really, actually take peoples advice BUT in a timley matter and use it. Most tools cost less then 20$. I know for sure that your family cant give you 20$. With all the time you wasted you could of cleaned the house , the bathroom, backyard, frontyard. Washed the car, cleaned the garage and have enough money to fix your trike at a local shop. If you dont want to do any of this and actually try to fix things and not half booty it, then do it. If not i would gove your trike to the person that has helped you out the most. (Are heavonly god in heavon plzz give this young boy the willing and power to try to fix his trike, as forth he needs your help more than for you to help me find a job.) there hope that helps..

[Unclediezel]

lol clediezel wtf i was told you need impacters and other tools that compression stuff in the engine. so your telling me that i could take every peice out of the engine housing and put it back together in a day or 2 just using screwdrivers hammers allen keys and other common stuff? If so damn im dumb

Robby Redneck can check spark without tools----hold the plug wire in his bare hands and rip the cord---:twisted:

Compression is a finger over the hole- and feel for a puff

Getting into the more complex stuff --would be a ----FLASHLIGHT---
"TOP-END" Diagnostic equipment----A MANUAL----And an A-B-C- book-so you could understand what youre reading(Apparently Optional)

What is lacked in knowledge can usually be made up in common sense----Read a book---figure out the basics of how an internal combustion engine is supposed to work ----and look at what you have in front of you----
I know it "BITES" to not have your ride---but if you spent half the time you did getting frustrated---actually looking at the problem and thinking about "WHY" ---you'd already be riding it

[Tri-ZNate]

:rolleyes: You want some advice? Follow the maunal and take the top end and cyclinder off. Check the piston, valves, cam, and rings. If they are all to specs including your carb its an ID10T error as we call it in the computer business.3


BTW you did Gap you new spark plug RIGHT?!?

[slothminx]

Lmao, are you joking? the dude would start wining on here after taking off the first head bolt.:rolleyes:

Ok YTMboy You have solved you own problem on this site about 50 times, wanna know what it is? well ok ill tell you. You keep saying it cant be that carb because you rebuilt it. Well judging by what knowledge you have displayed on here no offense but if i came round to help you get it running right now, that would be the first thing i checked before anything else. Take the carb off and take it to a shop and ask them if you have it together right.

Now, if the guy there checks it over and finds you have a problem in there then have a :beer

If not, look at EVERYTHING you touched i mean anything your hand might have brushed against while you were taking the carb out the first time. check all wires are plugged into each other nicely. Nothing is loose.

If you spend the time retracing everything you touched you will find whats wrong, I guarantee.

Ohh and heres your motivation to get it done. If you cant work it out you will officially be worse that my mum at mechanics:eek: lol:lol: :lol:

Good luck buddy

[YTM200BOY]

OK guys i have a bit of news i cant believe~!! I might have it running !!! my PLug the campion i thought was pre gapped ay? someone said did i gap it? does it come gapped? and i am honestly in the mood to ride so bad i might scroung up some money adn bring this pup in.... IF i dont get it running the spring.. my choke is busted and off.. thats why it wont start possibly. I HAVE TO SAY TO EVERY1 THAT REPLYED I THANK YOU PERSONALLY I WILL GET THIS BIKE RUNNNING AND ILL STOP STARTING THREADS UP THE A55. Common sense truly is the key i think... And by the way i didnt have a clue how to check spark last year but i found out quick as many of you know the redneck way... LOL aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh. lol you get it.. and yes i will try this project in about 4-6 months when it gets hotter to see if all i needed was a choke or i might pick 1 up of ebay for a good price.. THANK YOU GUYS AGAIN -Joe

[Tri-ZNate]

OK guys i have a bit of news i cant believe~!! I might have it running !!! my PLug the campion i thought was pre gapped ay? someone said did i gap it? does it come gapped?


No they dont come pre gapped.

[slowneasy]

hey ytm boy if i had an extra carb laying around i would send it to you for nothing even pay the shipping to see if that got you riding! good luck.

[YTM200BOY]

LOL thank you very much for the though but yeah lol....

[YTM200BOY]

any1 got a carb for a ytm200EK or a choke cable for a ytm200EK? just wonderin

[YTM200BOY]

for sale that is.... THANK YOU Joe

[Tri-ZNate]

you do know how to add on to previous said posts right? So you dont make 3 post about the same thing?

[Mr. Sandman]

Now this really is an entertaining thread, but that's about it. You could leave a Honda mechanic on his doorstep and he wouldn't know what to do with him.:wondering

I really do believe YTMBoy is just trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro with you guys and isn't really as inept as he sounds. But on the other hand, if he is real, it would probably be in his best interest not to ride the three wheeler if he ever does get it running because as we all know it takes a certain amount of skill to operate and we don't want any 3WW members to be mentally impaired :crazy: and crippled.:eek:
