Hi all,

I purchased a 914 a year ago that had been run in a test cell for 100 hours and then it sat for a couple of years.

I pulled the heads to inspect for corrosion and found small amount on the valve seats so I had them re seated, however I decided since I have it in bits to put a new set of rings in it.

So, after such a long winded introduction I would like to know if it is required to hone the bores so that the new rings will seat, or would I risk damaging the coating on the cylinder bores ?

Thanks, Paul

You can download the heavy maint. manual from the Rotax website for the 914 and it will tell you for sure.
