I seem to have managed to brake one of the exhaust valves on my berg...
I started it just fine, took it for a test drive in the parking lot.
It seemed to lack power, just as if it got to rich mixture...
I stopped to start fddeling with the mixture, gave it som gas, and then it just died...
Tried to kickstart it - no compression, then the kickstart was stuck, not possible to rotate the engine anyway...
Opened the sodding engine and found the broken valve...
Probably the valve snapped, the motor died, and the the broken valve felll into the cumbustion chamber when I tried to kick start it...
It doesn't seem to be any other major damages, some marks from the valve both on the piston and top...
Have anyone had any similar experience?
Do you think I will need to replace the piston, or any other part?
Is it difficult to replace valve-seats?
