Crazy… right

Happy to help. I like this video. Thanks for watching

Glad it helped! I have a full top end rebuild on this bike coming. Funny thing is I just sold it. 🙄

@@Rapsgarageman I’ll definitely give that a watch or three, I’m planning on doing my next rebuild myself on my 350

@@Camscornershop Just know I don't show too much about taking it apart since there are plenty of video's on here that show that. I stick to the technical stuff that is really important. Thanks for watching and commenting. czcams.com/video/Z6xlk6nFzk4/video.html

Good luck! Reach out if you need any help.

I don’t have a video for a twin power pump however, I do have a video on the hose routing on a shovel head. That would pretty much be the same as an Evo.

I would start out at 35° advanced unless you’re running a lot of compression. If you start to hear it ping then I would retard the timing to 32°. As for what curve I think I would go with curve number two that’s a little more aggressive.

I would only go with zero dead revs if it’s a kickstart bike if it’s not kickstart, then you definitely want the three dead revs that it comes with.

@@Rapsgarage TY. It's kick and elec start.

Definitely 0 dead revs. If you need your 2000i programmed, let me know

@@Rapsgarage TY

Yes

@@Rapsgarage Your accent gives it away. Nice bike. I have a 83 FXWG totally restored. Love it.

I think all that stuff is supposed to stop them from squealing.

@@Rapsgarage cool. I'm having a hard time reinstalling the rear caliper. It looks to me like it's got to go on the bike before the wheel... So you got to get everything installed with enough space between the brake pads to roll the wheel into position. I had the wheel on with the bracket and I couldn't get the caliper attached to the bracket with the brake pads and the two little metal clips that go on each side and the spring rod..... I don't know what the heck I'm doing wrong here..... Got any tips

@@Rapsgarage disregard my last I think I got it

Awesome!

Without the springs it should be really easy. The springs are stiff. With that said I’d put the shifter arm on the shift shaft so that you have some leverage and try it. Also you have to have the transmission in the motorcycle since the shafts need the support of right side case to keep them aligned. Let me know if you have any other questions.

@@hippieschoppercorner I agree!! I’ll subscribe to your channel too. Thx

@@fiveola glad to hear that! Thx

I’m always glad when my videos can help people. This took me some time to figure out but I asked Steg and he was kind enough to help me. Thx for watching.

Is it carbureted or fuel injection? Also, Harley offers the wiring diagram online for free go to Google put in your year bike and put in wiring diagram. I would check to make sure it has 12 V power coil. I would then start checking that you have 12 V power at the module for the spark. If it’s fuel injection, that would be the ECM. If you have further trouble, you can send me your phone number and I can help you over the phone. My email address is. hdrap_1999@yahoo.com

Check all of your fuses

@@Rapsgarage okay sweet thank you very much I really appreciate it. I will test that out tomorrow and get back to you

Are you saying to check the voltage on the ignition module itself ?

Yes, there should be constant power plus a switch power then check the 12 V on the coil also and then check the grounds on the ignition module.

Yes and yes

@@flshovelhead I show it in this video. czcams.com/video/_gw8zVaPOwo/video.htmlsi=Rzm0UVla9rjFCJYw

Do you have 12 volts on the coil?

Watch this video. czcams.com/video/IBok3aml3QM/video.html

@@Rapsgarage yepp. 12,7

@@Rapsgarage will do! Is there any way to see if its the ignition cables? To measure power when cranking on the coil

In my video, I show you how to check the plug wires. I would doubt that both of them went bad at the same time.

It’s just a set of contacts so what goes in should be what comes out… 12 volts or battery voltage. If you have a voltage drop across the contacts the relay is bad. If you need further help, let me know. Thanks for watching and if you haven’t, please subscribe.

@@mark-xc5ms check out this video. It explains it in detail. Harley Starter Relay Wiring explained czcams.com/video/oi02clHduzg/video.html

Very cool. I thank your dad for his service to our country.

@@user-ng9pz4fj3n awesome advice that I’ve never heard before. I did have to tweak the tank mounts when I originally put the tanks on in the late 90’s but assumed that nothing changed since but you never know, like you said. I should have bought more of the brass floats back then because they are the best I’ve ever had so far, but hindsight is 20/20. Thank you for sharing this knowledge in an educational way. If you see other things in my videos, please post and input because I’m always willing to learn. I do know you’ve posted great advice in the past on my channel. Thank you

@@terryclark6031 I have no idea on that one. Put it on and try it. Please let me know how you make out. Sorry I couldn’t help.

@@tchogworks1987 that sounds like a bad crank position sensor. The other check you can try is as soon as it dies spray it with some starting fluid to verify that it’s not a fuel issue so you don’t waste money and time.

@@customgaragemoto7590 Thank You

Thank you!!

@@randynorris6598 Thank you! No worries at all. Lol

@@williamanthony5021 👍🏻

@@williamanthony5021 Thank you for the compliment!!

Thanks!!

You are welcome! Thank you for watching.

That is such a nice looking bike.

I agree! Harley got it right with the Knuckle Head.

The part number is in the description. As for an old-school Shovelhead, they were a few different ones. I’d have to see it to know better.

Awesome! Thank you for watching. If you run into any road blocks, please reach out.

I also replace the LED bulb in my Chopper headlight. It’s the same headlight as your softail I believe. I still have this one in and it’s working great and it only cost me like $14. Is a LED Headlight Bulb worth it for your Harley Davidson? czcams.com/video/JlxiEJcN9E8/video.html

Enjoyed the video, your getting close. Never driven in NY, driven in Atlanta, that bad enough. Don't understand why people don't subscribe, I look forward to your videos. Thanks.

Thank you!!

Light Emitted Diodes. 😁

Thanks for watching

I know and I struggle with that too.

@@Rapsgarage haha Hey I'm with you 100%. Living in NYC the more lights the better - and the brighter the better.

I’ve ridden in NYC a few times. It’s crazy! If you can drive there you can drive anywhere!!

You want your tappets dry when you adjust them. Like I show in my video. Oil in the cam chest isn’t gonna matter, but there is a check that’s supposed to hold oil in the oil tank until the pump starts to turn. When this check doesn’t hold the oil up in the oil tank, that’s when you have the summing issues. So to answer your question, oil in the cam chest isn’t a problem when you’re adjusting your lifters. I hope this answers your question if it didn’t, please let me know.

@@Rapsgarage great thank you. Now next tip: how the hell do I get these damn push rod cover clips back in?! Haha.

I use a flat blade screwdriver but they sell a cheap tool on eBay

I find TDC on each cylinder

I’d reinstall the pushrod and give it a try. What you described could bend a valve. You’ll need to do a leakdown test to see. If it spins free, I’d put it back together and try it first.
