Prepping a 52 Harley Panhead For a Valve Adjust
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
We started to do a video on adjusting Panhead pushrods with solid valve lifters. But, stuff got in the way. So, that's why it's just prepping for the adjustments to be made in the next video.

We've all run into one of those moments when a 15 minute job really takes an hour. Stuff Happens...

Yup. I just see no reason to hide it.
Hi Mike & Mike, thanks for another great video. "Petrol" is the contraction of petroleum in Britain and its former colonies, as "gas" is of gasoline in your part of the world. I don't remember the details of how the U.S. came to call it gasoline in the first place, but I think it was something to do with the application(s) of patents and so forth by certain individuals in the industry. I did see a video about it at some stage... Anyway thanks again, and I look forward to the next instalment. All the best from Oz! 👍👍🇦🇺

Yep, it's always easier to just take that stuff off to get to things better,but we just try to save time by not doing that making the job take longer 😎. Lots of fun and satisfaction either way!

Well said.
Thanks for yet another interesting video, Mike and Mike. I just finished rebuilding a spare gearbox with an Andrews close ratio gear set for my Frankenstein panhead, and I can't wait to try it, but I can't bring myself to take that bike off the road to do the job. And I have other bikes to ride. So I understand putting off tearing down Baby Doll's motor!

Gentlemen, you flatter me, my ghast is truly flabbered, for the words I choose are just my own, not swords from the English scabbard, they come from deep within The Greenwood, for you to filter, ponder & muse, (fresh moss is growing up my legs & the kettle's just blown a fuse . . . (mild panic) -: Intermission :- 'Petroleum spirit. A petrochemical motor spirit, sold in bulk or cans & used by silly people'. Rudolf Diesel, German biker (failed). Dare I say, Baby Doll's 'little' job seemed to end up ever so slightly 'horn-swoggled' this time? : ) P.S. Permission granted - for life!

It's cool. I guess it's been a long time since I removed the pushrods from that motor.

Nice video!! How many kilometer do you run, to adjust the valvles? In all bikes is the same kilometers?

If she's real happy, she's fine. I'm only removing the pushrods so I can replace the pushrod tube seals. Solid lifters should be checked when doing normal tuneup procedures. Hydraulics shouldn't need to be checked once they've been adjusted.
Hey, Mike what is the correct name for those wrenches you are using ? you mentioned before but i do not remember.

Frustrating part about machines is having to remove unrelated parts just to get to the motor. Reassuring to see a seasoned expert have the same frustrations.
