Wasn't to bad, would've been much easier with a 4 post lift. I only had drive up ramps and jack stands. All went well.

well, it's 105 degrees out side, and I took the teener out for a 40 mile cruise. when I got back home and checked my oil temp dip stick, it was at 250 degrees. this is to hot, seemed to run cooler without the flaps? so what I'm going to do is remove them and take the same cruise tomorrow and see if there's a difference. also I'm going to put the right clamps on. I have some extras. Air cooled only did that, and I'm going to call bout that. the temp is going to be the same here tomorrow.

Some would like to know the purpose of the plastic rail(s) under the engine. Me too. As for overheating, I would say one big factor is the 105ºF ambient temps. Not sure about the equipment on your engine, but an external oil cooler might be in order if that's the typical operating condition where you live. Sherwood |

But during the winter it gets cold in northern AZ. also I was wrong on outside temperature, it was only 95 degrees. |
