Cannondaleriders

chris do u honestly believe we could get it running tomorrow? im outta work at 6... i could be there before 7. the only thing im havin trouble with is figuring out what all this means. you guru's know the flow of oil, all the pins and pumps. i know a bit now but am still a little lost on all these t...

when i took the plate out i took the crank out at the same time. so i believe the fly wheel was already off

also for whatever it means when it was full of oil and i had it running for a little i tried taking the engine drain bolt off and no oil came out. i had to tip the bike on its side to get oil to come out. what could this mean? i would have figured that oil would come flowing out of there naturally

i pulled the inlet line off and oil came pouring out for whatever that means. so next step is to... fill with oil again and take the filter out and see if oil comes out of th efilter area when i turn it over? i just wanna be sure about this stuff cause everyone is saying to do different things. all ...

so im going to go ahead and do what i just said... any objections?

wes gave me an idea... to flush the frame out i dont have to drop the motor. i can just disconnect all the hoses from the frame then run kerosene through the frame forced through by air pressure. shouldnt i try this b4 i drop the motor?

the crank never went either. when i assembled this motor there was no oil in it because it is a brand new case if that helps.

that was chris and mike that found the sludge. i havent seen any sludge yet so i dont even know 100% wht its going to look like. this sludge came form the xxxxxx hack job MORON that owned the bike b4 me. he never changed the oil it looks like

how much would someone give me for this? if this costs any money to fix i cant do it. it will have to sit til sometime this winter. im going to school in less than a month and have no money saved because i've put about $1k into this engine alone to get it running. im tired of this BS!

i put enough oil in... i put a little over 1.5 quarts. i pulled the hose that comes off the inlet and oil came shooting out. perfectly clean. what now? what else can i test w/o dropping?
