Motor Inspection and Compression Test

After getting everything home the first order of business was to disassemble the car and make a list of parts to order. The two most expensive parts being the Motor and ECU. This post will describe my (mostly pleasant) findings after removing the 2002 CBR 600 F4i engine from the car.


Compresion Test:
(Spec is 178psi)

Cylinder 1:  ~175psi

Cylinder 2: ~170 psi

Cylinder 3: ~170 psi

Cylinder 4: ~175 psi

Leakdown Test:

Very minimal leak down through the rings with no intake or exhaust valve leakage on any cylinder

Valve Clearance Measurements:

Spec: 
.008 intake
.011 exhaust 

The Clearance Was Excellent

Bottom end, transmission, and clutch inspection:

STM Slipper Clutch looks to be in good shape and actuates nicely

Best I can tell the shift forks and shift dogs look good so on to the next area.....
