  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

how do I get the oil tube that runs over the valve cams off? Then the bearings?

Alrighty, is it a grab and pull thing or is there a technique to stop me stuffing it up?

Also I want to change the auto decomp so need to get that bearing off and may have to replace others if worn.
So a bearing puller should do the trick for the auto decomp side but what about the other side, there's a cog in the way!
Also do the bearings have a definite stop point when putting them on or is it possible to put them too far down the shaft?
I see this little learning exercise could end in tears!!!
Any advice appreciated as usual :)
 
The oil tube is held down by the cam caps, you MUST pull both left side caps (1 and 3) to remove the oil tube. Be careful with the oil tube, it can bent very easily and then it won't line up perfectly with the holes, and will need to be rebent until it fits again, don't ask me how I know this.

There is a thread about lining up the chain cog back onto the cam, I'll look for it later.

I don't know for sure if the cams are to pressed on until they stop or if there is a stopping point.

I just changed my ADC valve lifter and I only did the 1 bearing.
 
Well I thought I'd put it back together without doing the auto decomp to see if the valve shim adjust did anything - much improved, was perfect till the clutch went then it cut out....I'm getting closer though :)
I inadvertently misaligned the exhaust cam cogs, lucky I had read that other post a few days back so realised and sorted it. Even think it may have been out since the improvement to starting was so great?
