Replace the LPR?

[pimpinsaylor]

On the G7 is it required to replace lpr after every 80,000 shots? thanks

Absolutely not, in fact there's no set timeframe in which the LPR should be replaced. If the marker is taken care of properly you should never have to replace the LPR.

oh ok i just got done reading your review. thanks for the help

In my review I mentioned that the days of replacing the exhaust valve stem every 70-80k are gone but that's the only reference to 80k that I remember making.

[pimpinsaylor]

yeah thats right. on the older models you have to replace the exhaust stem every 70k-80k then?

The only thing that would ever have to be changed on an Angel around the 80,00 shot area, is the Exaust Valve Stem.

However, on the G7 that is not needed.

ok thanks

Give or take, that's somewhat an estimate. For example, the valve stem on my '05 Speed lasted only about 60,000 cycles of extensive play before it needed to be replaced. The one my IR3 lasted close to 100,000 cycles before it was replaced.

So that number was more of a gauge. One of the G7s I work on is pushing 65,000 cycles and shows no sign of wear that will cause leaking on the new stem seal.
