1979 Harley Davidson FLH Shovelhead Rebuild Part 4 Oil Tank Install HD 1080p

As much as I didn't want to mess with taking out the oil tank, I knew it was time. Without the rear fender in the way and as much room as I could have, I needed to tackle this project. Yes it fought me the whole way but the new tank is in!

Mine had a brass oil filter that looked like it came out of a McMaster-Carr catalog for an air compressor. The gas tank tabs were bad about breaking also.

Wild! I haven’t seen a brass oil filter before. I’ve seen a ton of damaged tabs more so oil tank tabs.
