Yong Heng Screw-up!

[Ponz]

I made a stupid move and need guidance please.I was playing around with various types of intake filters and a piece of fiber got sucked in. I immediately turned it off and removed the 2nd stage cylinder and didn't find it.

Before is disassemble the whole thing, can someone please explain or show a diagram of the airflow?

Where do you think the piece of fiber ended up?Ponz

John, it's probably in the first stage, low pressure cylinder IF I'm understanding what you were doing. When you say "intake filter" do you mean the bronze colored small filter on the low pressure cylinder? Picture?

I found it. It was atop the 1st stage cylinder. Glad I turned her off immediately!

One positive is that you now can disassemble and change the piston in your yong heng...I have rebuild my yong heng 7 times in three years. Can do it in about 30 minutes now... So $30.00 for piston gasket rebuild kit
