Hello to all,
I'm having to replace the rear cyl. exh. push-rod tube seal (center position)again! I've tried doing it exactly as the o.e. manual states;It still leaks after a few higher R.P.M./freeway miles of riding.I've tried using a thin coating of PERMATEX AVIATION glue which lasted slightly longer than the recommended procedure,But eventually failed.Heres what I got:'00-FXDWG/95' carbureted(42mm MIKUNI),S&S 570 gear-drv. cams,Delkron cam plate,FEULING superpump,FEULING "HP"-lifters,S.E. adj. pushrods w/new tube springs & new inner tube(s),JIMS roller rocker arms,DELKRON rocker supports,S.E. PERF. heads,& a THUNDER-HEADER.I'm aware of the crankcase pressure with these motors,But what am I doing wrong here!?.Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated,THANKS!!!...

anyone know if I can go from SE STAGE I back to factory settings on EFI ...called up 2 dealers...one says yes other says no...
