bought a new cylinder. got some questions

[motorida26]

hey guys, there wasnt really a "cylinder" section so again, sorry if its the wrong place.

anyway i got my brand spankin' new oem 2004 Honda Cr125 Cylinder jug in about half an hour ago.

because its brand spankin' new, theres absolutely NOTHING on it. therefore, i also ordered and recieved the 5 bolts that screw into the top of the cylinder jug so you can bolt the head on.

They're threaded on both sides, and im curious if theres a certain way to get them in. Im pretty sure I can hand tighten them in there, but not sure after that. i dont believe my manual said anything either.

I also got a dowel that looks like its just pressed into the cylinder jug. but with what?

[awames76]

get 2 nuts and screw them on the threads that stay above the cylinder and use 2 open end wrenches and tighten them together tight and use the top nut to tighten in the cylinder, the pin probably is a locating pin and probably goes around one of the studs. im not worked on that engine so im not sure where it goes but take a look at the old cylinder that should tell u where it goes,

thanks for the reply.

Ill definitely do the double nut thing.

i know where it goes, just unsure how to get it in. Maybe im just over thinking things, because everything else is really simple. lol

oh yeah, another question.

what should and shouldnt I loc-tite? lol sorry im pretty new to engines.

just use a block of wood and a hammer to drive in the peg, should go easy. not sure never installed new studs, but cant hurt, use some blue loctite.
