Does anyone know if there are any differences in the Yamaha camshafts from 77 thru 82?
Also, I am re-building my entire motor (for the second time) due to me blowing a hole in the right piston. As I removed the top end I noticed that the cams as well as the rocker arms are making a very weird pattern. I think it is due to oil loss on the top end. It's hard to describe but the cams aren't smooth anymore but rather developed sections evenly over the cam, the rocker arms also did the same thing. Looks like it's time for a top end overhaul. Lastly, has anyone opened their motor up and instead of seeing just normal oil residue, instead you see this grime/oil mud/sludge crap?? It almost seems as if all this crap from the road got into my motor. I did put on some low end pod filters and appear to have a clutch pushrod oil seal leak. Thanks in advance.
