  1. I use premium no-lead fuel . I had my bike remapped in Cape Girardeau a few years ago at a bike shop . I have no pre-ignition.
  2. DO NOT allow anyone to hit the starter " barrel" with any metal objects . If you hit this and the magnets come loose or break , you are in trouble .
  3. What all do you have to offer ?
  4. FWIW 1 mm is 0.0394'' . 1/16'' is 0.0625'' . What is the Roper Plate thickness ? I run the Real Thing !
  5. Verify ( w/key on ) one side of the ignition coil has 12v. and one side of the injector has 12v. The crank sensor ( I think ) will have 5v on one terminal . You can wire a noid light into the crank sensor to verify signal output when cranking. It will be easier to remove spark plugs to make the engine crank easier .
  6. Gotcha
  7. Hmmmmmm. bad threads ?
  8. You can get a "noid light " and test for pulse . If you have pulse tap on the injector with a screwdriver handle to try to shock it loose . I have a Kent-Moore injector pulse generator if you want to borrow it to help pulse the injector while you tap on the injector . If you do get it to run , it would benefit you to get the injectors tested and cleaned .
  9. You want to get the max vacuum reading on each individual cylinder . This vacuum tube is not connected to the other port . The balance tube is connected to both ports and is used to balance the cylinders to get the same power output . This is my opinion on the results you are looking for .
  10. What is the recommended TPS v ? With a carb stix or whatever you are using and it's content . You are wanting a max reading of each cylinder .
  11. They were a GREAT motorcycle . H-D owners just could not bring themselves to ride one , no one else would go to a Harley shop and look at one . a buddy of mine that at one time had two Harleys and a Buell loved it . Something like 6 rear tires in the first year of ownership . He came by the shop one afternoon and let me take it for a spin , I had to stop twice , get off and make sure it had a V-twin engine . I can't recall the model . White , and the instrument cluster lights came on is sequence , then all on . It was WAY TOO righteous for me .
  12. Get plenty of gaskets , hose clamp the NEW oil filter , and enjoy . As I once said , it is the greatest improvement you will never see .
  13. You got that right !
  14. And you grease them EVERY oil change .
  15. Judging from the blue seals on the u-joint caps I would say you used Spicer u-joints ? The BEST !
  16. You did use plenty of wheel bearing grease on the needle bearings in the hub where the axle shaft goes through the spindle ?
  17. Contact a hydraulic hose / fitting store ( Parker , Gates , etc. ) and ask them about tools to straighten up the mating surface . They may have something in stock . Take it w/you , they might do it for you for free & get rid of the burr in the bore of the fitting . Also www.air-way.com sells fittings w/a replaceable o-ring if you or anyone else wants to do something different in the future ?
  18. Conventional camshaft and lifters ; the camchaft lobe is not '' level " . One edge is taller than the other and the lifter foot "bottom" has a convex . These features will help the lifter to spin and slow down wear . ANY imperfections on the bottom of the lifter means to replace the lifter and install w/cam & lifter lube . Roller lifter camshafts have perfect height of the cam lobe and the foller on the lobe . This lobe needs to be ferfect to help keep the lifter in alignment . You cannot mismatch these components .
  19. It is a hokey-pokey setup . You live with it or you fix it .
  20. You can install a longer vent hose , loop it and install a plastic fuel filter in the end of the vent hose to keep any nasty stuff out of the differential . AND , make some studs to maintain good alignment when you reinstall the differential to the front axle housing . You don't want to drop the F-bomb discovering smeared sealant after you get it back together .
  21. It can be done .......It will be a MammyTamper to do .
  22. Make sure the vent is clear . Use a good brand u-joint w/grease fittings . I would use a great brand of sealer on the install .
  23. What are you doing to the differential ?
