warrior tap?
i just rebuilt my 02 warrior engine top to bottom. irode it twice now since and now there is a tap comin from the head. pulled cam out looks new no wear marks or metal any wear in head. i'm lost i tried turning engine by hand and it wont make the noise only when running. any one have any idea what is making the noise
Wow...no wear? It has to be some part in there moving up and down...

i just replaced crank piston rings cam timing chain and tensioner. if i adjust the idle screw just right the tap goes away until i give it gas. timing dead on valve clearence to spec. i'm lost i've been playing with this engine since i bought it in 02 never had it kick my a$$ like this. i'm getting my sp 800 this weekend and selling the warrior but i don't wont to sell something i'm not sure about.
I hear you.
I'd love to hear Chadd, Bill or Jack's theory....Obviously, my first thought was the piston tapping the top.

Are you saying if you turn up the idle the knock or tap goes away?extreme atv rider wrote:i just replaced crank piston rings cam timing chain and tensioner. if i adjust the idle screw just right the tap goes away until i give it gas. timing dead on valve clearance to spec.

When you give it the gas the tap or knock comes back?
I know its not apples to apples but on my 500 if the idle is to low I get a small chirping and slight tapping sound. It gets in to the compression release that is for easier starting.(zero to low RPMs)
