So I’m pretty certain that it’s not my crank seal cause I haven’t lost like any oil. Could the power valve have anything to do with it?

Don’t know about jetting. Spark plugs a little oily. I think elevation is 1300 feet. How do you measure the cylinder on a budget? Also what’s the ring gap supposed to be?

Tough to tell from the coating color and such, but it looks like you’re getting blowby and like the skirt is shiny, meaning the next step (if not already) is piston slap. Let that go long enough and it’ll break the skirt. What bike, what’s the cylinder look like, what oil/fuel, etc?
