Re: Thoughts on replacement pistons for the model 03 Wombat!!!
Never tried, but thought about making bushings to press into the crank pin bore.

Re: a oil injection question
Plastic part locks the cable in place. Tried to find an example in my parts stash but no luck. Might be brass but I remember plastic.

Re: Help identifying parts
Having second thoughts about the cylinder head. Head might be from a late model 100. Easy enough to find out. Measure combustion chamber diameter.
125 = 56mm.
100 = 50mm.

Re: Help identifying parts
All the late model heads had the second digit blanked. Same head casting for the mdl 97,98,99 and 03 Wombat.
03 Wombat was the only Hodaka with that intake port arrangement.

Re: 03 Wombat top end
You would have to use the 03 piston. Or, use a modified crank to use the 97 rod and piston.

Re: Needle bearing removal
I use a small toaster oven and heat the case to 325 degrees. With the bearing opening facing down while heated, it will likely fall out by itself. If not just drop the case lightly on a wood surface.

Re: 03 motor/piston question
The crank pin on the 03 wombat is larger diameter than the crank pin on the Road Toad. The Road Toad and early 125's crank pin diameter are the same allows swapping the early 125 rod for the Road Toad's.

Re: Model 97 - Finally getting started
03 engine is a totally different animal. Crank, cases gears MOST parts not inter-changeable with other models. The 03 cylinder head gets very little respect but the combustion chamber shape / lay out is prefered...at least by me.

Re: Cylinder bore how to measure
Victor, I like the basic 436 Starrett version micrometer with carbide faces and 10th scale. Micrometers measure in 1 inch lengths and the one used for the 125 bore is a 2 to 3 inch. I think you would need a 1 to 2 inch version for the 100 bore. I bought all my micrometers on ebay. Micrometers are ei...

Cylinder bore how to measure
Measuring an 03 Wombat cylinder and took some pictures to demonstrate process and tools used. More sophisticated tools are available but basic quality micrometer and telescoping bore gages can get the job done. DSCN3237[1].JPG This is the kind of job that you need three hands. Micrometer holders / s...

Re: Gas Tank Cleaning Question???
Hey Vic,
Do not use Kreem tank sealer. Not a very good product in my experience. Caswell makes a decent epoxy sealer but that tank would need to be cleaned way better than that if a sealer is used.
Try some lacquer thinner first. Might break down what ever that residue is.

Al, 1. The counter bore depth is slightly greater than the thickness of the retaining clip. You want the tube end of the tool pushing against the clip retainer. 2.

The working end of the pin is 5mm the same as the end of the control shaft. The over all length of my tool is 1/2 inch shorter than the original tool. Preference on my part. This is one of the original batch of tools I made for Strictly Hodaka. No extra ones available at this time. Danny Cooke DSCN3...

Re: base gasket leaks
Hey Victor, Yes, on top of the engine cases where the two halves meet under the cylinder base gasket. Lots of automotive applications where junctions like this occur and it is recommended to apply a dab of sealer to prevent leaks. Do not allow RTV to cure, assemble immediately. Doesn't take much.......
