HenryN Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I have an 1907 LC and I have had had many problems including having to rebuild the rere end and now that it is going well I aam having a heating problem on the right hand cylinder. It runs very much hotter on the right side to the point where at about 8 km I have to stop and let it cool for 15 minutes and off again for another few kms.The rad has been well flushed and is clear and there is no muck in the cylinder water jacket. Any sujestions Henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckR Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Possibly the gas/air mixture is uneven and the hot cylinder is running lean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Cerutti Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Henry, tell us about any work recently done on the engine, for example: boring or pistons or rings. Does the engine show loss of power indicating seizing? Is the inlet manifold original? Still 1 carburettor?
