hardtail Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 The top pic is your oil pump under the slot screw in the cases there is a fine metal screen, pull it out if it's full of metal filings you have something going astray 🤔 you might still have problems elsewhere if it's clean, @Dasnake did these have a compensating sprocket off the engine left side, evos had it but can't recall when they introduced it, those can loosen and make noise also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtail Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Just not sure if the 74's had them I kind of think not, thought it was an 80" idea but I'm forgetting alot these daze...anyway another place to look for problems, just strip off the outer primary cover to access, other things to inspect in there if it has a chain tensioner, might need a stethoscope to figure out source of noise, he'll the entire machine is a source of noise😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtail Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 You should be able to rule out some primary issues then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got pull them screens and check. They were clean last fall but the noise wasn’t there then either. Thinking she sat so long probably has some surface rust on the crank bearings... Paying job today, stripped stub style king pin on a John Deere... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I indicated it then bored till it just cleaned up then threaded it. It’s now an odd ball thread but I’m making a new kingpin to suit. There really wasn’t enough material to sleeve it back to original size. It’s cast iron also so no welding. I also cornered the market on a replacement kingpin lol! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love machining pictures! 24” over the bed, 36” in the gap and 19 and change over the saddle. She’s a beast! I’ll probably start another thread for the bike engine fix and general fix it/machining pics I guess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawleigh99 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I look forward to it. I have a 14 x 48 and a South Bend 10. Also an old round ram Bridgeport and an Abrasive Machines surface grinder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a handful... pops cut the video a few seconds early as when I let out of the throttle between the worm drive and engine braking I had her pretty sideways. Had to call on my DIRT modified driving from younger days but I kept her in my lane! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmi Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Exciting to say the least ! not to throw mud on the fire, But I do recall a (40 yrs ago) oft mentioned ,old "wives" tail of farmers getting trans shrapnel from over powered fordsons ( like FHV8) and the ALways stated general use ,roll over backwards . If you are doing much "dragg in" maybe a pullers kevlar blanket and wheelies ? Play safe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are doing much "dragg in" maybe a pullers kevlar blanket and wheelies ? Play safe. We’re planning some fenders that will merge into a “platform” which will act as a draw bar/wheelie bar and also give space for a passenger to ride along (maybe not at full speed!). As far as shrapnel the clutch and flywheel are well forward of the driver and both are running within their rated rpm range. The transmission has no large or heavy gears, I think the largest diameter is ~6” and that gears speed is already reduced by the contershaft ratio. There’s really nothing in there which has much weight or inertia moving at excessive speed. Also no gears run close to the case so if something broke it would have to fly through the case is not likely to jam up and push its way through... not saying in couldn’t happen but I think the design makes it unlikely that anything could exit... the castings are pretty thick also. Probably not an issue unless we put big traction to it and try to pull hard at which point I think the wheels would fail or the bronze worm wheel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I called it a "wives tale" as never met the cripple with the claims,of items penetrating the case, maybe early model/over mod?

I’d say it’s happened. SFI certified racing bell housings exist for a reason. I used to race karts when I was younger and as we moved to the unlimited 4 stroke class things got dicey... the rules specified a stock unaltered Briggs and Stratton flywheel weighing a minimum of 5lbs 12oz. As the engine tech evolved faster than the rules this became an issue. I’ve spun one of those flywheels 11,200 rpm... seen two explode and at one event we didn’t attend (because we had the points championship locked down...) a spectator was killed by a flywheel explosion. They allowed billet flywheels very quickly after that incident... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
