Member Contributer vfrcapn Posted June 30, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted June 30, 2014 After my recent engine swap, thanks to Mello Dude for supplying some well machined pair block off plates. Cleans up the head nicely. I ran short on a SS cap head screw, something to replace next time I'm in there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer LangoPTC Posted October 26, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted October 26, 2014 Another satisfied customer! Thanks mello dude. It's nice being able to smoothly roll on and maintain throttle at low rpm when the engine is cold. No more decel popping either! I'm wondering if anyone has ever successfully removed the reed valve screws with just a screwdriver? Not me. I was able to remove them by clamping vise grips on the head of the screws and unscrewing... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Rush2112 Posted October 28, 2014 Member Contributer Share Posted October 28, 2014 ... I'm wondering if anyone has ever successfully removed the reed valve screws with just a screwdriver? Not me. I was able to remove them by clamping vise grips on the head of the screws and unscrewing... I removed 4 of them without issue... IIRC there is a small nut (6mm or 7mm) on the back that I wrenched and held the screw with a screwdriver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
