What's the trick to changing rocker box gaskets without adjustable pushrods?
@bengonzales24173 сағат бұрын
I actually did it on my 91 Sporty but can't remember (65)😉

Would it be good to replace the wrist-pin bushings while the crank assembly is out of the case? To avoid filings getting in the case.

Hi Mike clint from Australia you have given me some amazing tips working with your experience and what I have learnt the S&S engine is really a great way to get rid of leaks and knocks but the S&S heads use 14 mm plugs just for people who don't know i burned out plenty of normal H.D reach because I didn't know.

Your personal expertise on shovels has benefited me more than once; and your cameraman aint't afraid to get into uncomfortable positions. Hope the new year treats you and your families well.

You do a great job explaining details, like why the main seal goes in "backwards". And the cam bearing orientation. All very useful information.

Hey Mike, you may have already answered somewhere in the comments but what book are you using for the torque specs on the rocker plate? Thanks
@pacificmike95012 күн бұрын
I don't know what you mean by the term "rocker plate." But, I normally use Genuine Harley Davidson service manuals for torque specifications. If I'm using aftermarket parts, I generally use the manufacturer's of those parts, recommendations.
@orficaldari3524Күн бұрын
@ Sorry I was referring the assembly that is the rocker arms and has to be torqued in to the heads. You have a book on the music stand that I thought you were using for values.

Thanks for the video, very helpful. I'm replacing a pushrod on my 55 Pan, someone gave me a new pushrod they had for their Pan, but the top of it is a larger diameter head than what I took off mine. I've not seen any information about the diameter difference, I assume it's important so that it fits correctly into the rocker.. Would that be true?
@pacificmike95012 күн бұрын
Yes, it's critical that the pushrod fits correctly into the rocker arm, a mismatch can cause serious damage.

The alignment of your rear wheel is what controls the alignment of the chain and sprockets. I've installed rear wheels on the channel before. Go to youtube. Type in Pacific Mike. When our Homepage comes up, click on "videos" Over 350 will show up with pictures. Anywhere I install a rear wheel should help, as will section 2 of your service manual.

How to tell if TDC on engine evo?
@pacificmike95014 күн бұрын
Remove sparkplugs. Crank engine over by hand (by turning rear wheel). Look in timing plug hole. One dot is front cylinder TDC. Make sure both valves for the front cylinder are closed (lift pushrod tubes on front cylinder an watch valve lifters drop.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year looking Fwd to your videos in 2025. Glad your eyes are better after the three surgeries I have had three knee replacement surgeries myself. The first doctor messed it up so I went to a different doctor and I’am doing good now and those surgeries kept me from riding for a few years. I myself like riding at night especially if it’s around 50°F sometimes I’ll be riding home late and it’s so nice out I just want to keep on riding. I will have to get a few of those shirts. 😎👍🍻

Hey Mike! Love watching your videos, one quick question, my shovel isn’t put back together yet but living in PA and parking our bikes through the winter, regardless of using non ethanol gas…. Is it a good idea to drain the tank completely because the water that might settle in the little tubes on the bottom of the tanks? Thanks
@pacificmike95014 күн бұрын
What isn't there can't go "rotten." I believe in draining the gas from the tank and the carburetor fuel bowl.
