Good morning 🌅, nice job, 👍🏻, I have just replaced my drive belt, seals and bearings, and sprocket ⚙️, on my 2003 Deuce, and put Jim’s upgrade kit bearing on the inner primary, shaft , I even managed to undo the starter with out having to take the oil tank off, Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge, And yes HD doesn’t want to work on older bikes, Stay safe, France.
Hope you had a great 4th , I road on the 4 and 5 everything was great went out today my engine puking oil out till it went bone dry in under 8 miles I trailered it home , Im thinking of going back to stock lol going to check my oil pump I had 40 psi so its pumping out oil , but is my breather or scavenger goofing up S&S reed breather and a high flow pump . fit to be tied 300 plus miles since i did the cam and lifters . had zero leak down and 195 compression on both jugs .
Hi JC, they cancelled the 4th festivities here do to heat. It's been over a 100 for 3 weeks straight now and getting hotter each day. This has never happened before. So no riding for me. Man your having a time with that engine. The only thing I can think of is 1 of the umbrella valves is bad or you have a clogged return. May have had a piece of metal floating around in there from you're cam bushing going out and it's lodged somewhere.
@@tinkeringwithharleys For 300 miles everything was great it run like a champ , I check the oil Cold before I ride then when I get home hot and its been fine right on the dipstick lines , did it today my pan was full got 8 miles and stop I seen oil on my bag and leg the pan was bone dry . in 8 miles . I do not think its the pump it was showing 20 PSI if it was sumping you think it do it each time i went out . not wait and hit miss ? by not scavenging . Im tearing it down pull the pump look it over I do not think its that . then the rockers to look up top umbrellas . im stumped unless the pump is failing then working and failing then working . it started puking with the S&S reed valve i took it as a norm on hot days .
@@JCcanU I had one about 2 years ago doing the same thing. I didn't do the original work on it and it was a TC. It had previously had a chain tensioner come apart. Was taken apart and cleaned out by someone else and put back together. Ran great for about a month than started puking oil. I dug into it and some pieces of the tensioner plugging the oil vent line and some small pieces in the return in the rear head. Cleaned everything out. It solved the problem. Good luck with this brother.
