Get cutting oil, spit is literally better than wd for cutting threads

[@user-li5gp5xs1w]

Use a cresent wrench.

It's a pipe tap. It will get harder as you go deeper.

[@arthurjock4179]

Use a t handle for the tap.

[@josephfriedrich9792]

Old video, but a socket fits over the square tap end

[@Americanpatriot602]

I put the tap in my drill and just go real slow with the variable speed trigger! I’ve done this for years at work and it works well! Also,, i use a wax stick to keep the threads lubed! Just be careful to not go fast or the tap will break!

[@jcook5297]

I did a similar mod and used a DK Customs catch can. Lots of water moisture along with oil mist!! So glad I did it on my ‘21 Ultra-Limited.

Great vid. One small suggestion: when you were screwing in the brass fittings, a set of ratcheting wrenches would have made that a snap vs. an open box wrench.

[@jeffbradley7755]

A good bit of oil means you have too much oil in the bike.

[@trinibobfjr]

I appreciate your video. It’s more specific to the needs of my street glide special with the screaming eagle air cleaner on it. I’ll be looking at your other videos for advice. Thanks again.

I did something similar but had a machinist do it. I had them weld up the oil channels to the intake so I don’t have to worry about anything being sucked in through those. It’s a K&N back plate.

[@johnjohnson2855]

Bring that hose in between the V and out the other side. And hose and barbs don’t need to be that big. Smaller hoses work better.

[@MrGerryoc]

You answered your own question its a tapered tap ie gets larger the deepen it goes

[@joefrias]

I like your style and funny the Exxon Valdez pun 😂

[@aircamry]

Did this and oil sprayed all over the back tire don’t understand why so much oil coming out redid the rocker

[@deweydodo6691]

A 12 point 1/4" inch drive socket of the right size fits the tap and works better than rotating vise grip.

[@lawrencebrandt8448]

don't complain about it being a pain you did it with out a vice and much experience , good job .

[@michaelsodano616]

Is it catching anything?

[@michaelbobb7974]

Dk customs has a nice breather kit

[@petelanzone484]

yeah definitely do a catch can.. oil dripping in front of rear wheel .. not such a good idea. no matter how little it is.. ;)
