Check carbs tight , gaskets arent leaking , basically clean engine off completely before running if you see a wet spot when youre done guess what you found ;)

Novarossi P3xs Internals
 
Hello Mr Houston:

Been looking online for Piston / sleeve combo and a new shaft for my P3xs and cant seem to find any that I 'know' will work in it.

Do you know of anyone know who sells parts for this engine? Also any recommended bearings since they seem okay still, but I may replace them also. Very hard to find online. Everything seems to be P5 nowadays.

Thanking you in advance for your time

That's pretty much the entire engine. Wouldnt it be cheaper to buy the entire thing, rather than just internals

hope you got a newer one with good front bearing

Houston.

I also have a P5xlt. How do you tell if you have the newer front bearing?

Quick question. Does it matter if you do or don't run a washer in front of the front bearing before the flywheel collet goes on? The reason I ask is because I am using a washer but it has made my flywheel move forward and know I need to use an extension lipped washer on the clutch bell to get the right free play and it is close to my tank.

Hope this makes sense
