    I'm setting the valve clearances on my '82. I set the left side and everything is all fine and dandy. But when I go to set the right side, it moves the timing mark when I adjust the tappets. Should I have someone hold it a TDC? Or is it fine?

    Cam Orientation HELP!

    I'm putting my '78 basket case back together and I've hit a roadblock. I've taken advice I received here and gotten a yamaha factory service manual. I'm putting the cam back in and I can't find a clear answer in the manual about which direction it should go. One side of the cam has threads on it...

    If you just want to get the gunk out I used simply green and a nylon bristle brush for the really gunked on stuff.
