[@mistreku]

Oh man! I was hoping to hear it running!

[@CruiserDayz]

Sorry, I used Movie Maker on this one.

[@jamesgibbons8320]

is there a trick to removing the blots keeping the stator in the one by the foot peg and the one further back the frame is blocking it. and what bolts do in remove to jack the engine up

[@1stonehand]

I am in process of tear down to replace engine on my 07 Vulcan 900 Custom that has over 143,000 miles on it. Spark plug on rear cylinder looks just like one in video. Any tips would be appreciated.

U R freaking awesome!!

[@williamhebert4047]

What is the is each of the nipples for on the air filter housing like the 3 behind one one on the bottom? I just bought a 1997 vn800 and need to run new lines as old ones were all removed I am am struggling with it and could really use some help knowing what they are for or where do they connect at the other end thanks 😬

Awesome. I was wondering if you may be able to answer this for me. I have a 2005 Vulcan 800 classic. The pet cock leaked duel I to the carb and cylinders. I didn't know any better and tried to start it . IT back fired or popped just for a second. it didn't start. I replaced the pet cock a d fixed the leaking issue, drained the oil contaminated with gas and replaced it with 10w 40. Now the starter spins but does not engage the motor. Did the fuel that leaked into the cylinder have caused the gas to explode in the cylinder and force the motor to go against the one way clutch and destroy it or maybe the torque limiter is ruined? I had no starting issues before and the bike ran great. please help if you can. Thanks John

Wow! What exhaust is that! Is that Hard Krome?

[@KevinFreist]

good vid man! i like the long story short ideA! works well . was that debri in the intake maybe the culprit? if something were to lodge a valve open when valve train is trying to close it , would it not release the valve keeper ? not sure , just trying to understand why that durable engine would fail that way. was it a carburator part in the intake or pieces of valve?

[@CruiserDayz]

Pretty sure the valve clearance had never been checked or adjusted.

[@carloshugo3996]

Toda moto com motor com pastilha tá dando problema no caso da Vulcam a pastilha vira e a valvula desse de mais e o pistão bate nela

[@dannyfresh6697]

Guess this is why it is very important to do a valve adjustment on your bike when it is needed

[@freezingthedarkness]

dannyfresh Check it every 6000 miles. A simple shim destroys an entire engine.

[@natvega1]

I have one of these and that fan switch wont kick in until almost 250 degr, so I put a manual switch that only cost about 5 dollars and I turn it on at about 160 or 170 degr, because the exhaust I have heats way over 250 degr. So make sure that doesnt happen again and put a Little 5 dollar on and off switch to the fan, the conections for it are right on the radiator, fast and simple could save you a lot of time and money in the future.

[@CruiserDayz]

Natanael montanez vega the stock fan switch is a standard part that can be replaced easily. You can get generic switches on ebay for about $5. Plug and play, no manual switches or wires and the stock setup will keep the fan on even when the key is pulled out until the temp is safe. I would just replace tbe stock switch personally.

[@natvega1]

CruiserDayz would it turn my fan on at 160 or 170¿¿¿¿

[@natvega1]

When the fuel petcock goes bad it usually goes unnoticed and as the gas leaks into the cylinder head it goes down into the oil and eventually thins out the oil causing great cyclider heat, so I bypassed the petcock with an inline fuel shutoff valve that only takes a second to shut off when you turn the bike off.

[@CruiserDayz]

Natanael montanez vega technically the float in the carb fuel bowl is what controls the flow from the tank/petcock. All the petcock does is allow or not allow flow to the fuel bowl which is then controlled by the float switch.

[@natvega1]

CruiserDayz the float in the carb doesnt always stop the flow of fuel on a full tank, It already happened to me, one mourning the fuel was all over the floor and the night before I had filled the tank, good thing I left the petcock on PRI or I would have never noticed that the petcock was faulty, the petcack is the main source for fuel shutoff, anyway good luck after all that work I wouldnt want anything to happen to my bike.

[@itmember5721]
