Primary Leak

	The little goofy spring thingy keeps falling on the ground and the stupid quad ring won't stay put either. I am about to have a nervous breakdown I am so late to pick up my friend and get back for my bro Wam's funeral. Sometimes the quad ring stretches and pops off one section, other times it compresses and pops of another. Harley is using the as-cast surface for the ring for cost reduction so don't expect the grove to be cut with a dovetail cutter like the million dollar semiconductor manufacturing machines over at Applied Materials I have worked on. The dovetail allows the o-ring to pop in and stay even if you turn the whole mess upside down.
	Assembly lube to the rescue. Glom it all over the place and everything should stay put just long enough to...
	Pop on the derby cover and screw in the hated torx screws with a screwdriver. They won't strip this way. Leave the breaker bar in the house. (Notice how shiny the cover is. I hope Wam appreciates me dolling up my ride for his funeral.)

Authoring: This site is created with the free composer program that comes with Netscape. We are using 4.7 since rev 6 will not start on our Win2k box. (Some coincidence that the latest Microsoft OS breaks Netscape huh?)

Our Guarantee: No Frames, no Java, no Swift C, no cookies, no cascading style sheets, no dot net monopoly bully and no Active Server Pages. Minimal graphics and no audio without request. Most documents in this site are available on pdf format and those will have full graphics content. We also make the source documents available whether Excel or Word or Autocad. We believe engineering and technology are an art. Free sharing and expression are more important than small-minded monopoly rent seeking. Feel free to use the files and materials on this site. Good luck with your projects.
