Well, did have one on my motorized scooter with a Zenoh G23 eninge, popular in weed wackers. stock I could turn a little less than 9k, after piped, ported, 15:1 compression, case stuffer, advanced ignition, carb, filter i could turn close to 14,500 using stock internals and the original rings but ever run was calling for a rebuild afterward. It wasnt any fun... I put new rings and gaskets on it a while back, gona get a 4 transfer port cylinder, and piston with it and get that reliability back.

Does anyone want to buy a motorized scooter running 28mph at wot? completley reliable ;)

LMAO, I LOVE the responses. mopower, I wish I could be there to see you tell the engine builder the story tomorrow!!
Well, I took it apart this afternoon & it turned out to be a broken valve. No other damage & it will be back together tomorrow to attack thos Mother F***ing leaves.
If it were blown apart, I would have done some psyco power upgrade so I could blow the blacktop off the street.........
