Harley Twin Cam Chain Tensioner Replacement with Push Rod Removal Complete - Part 2

Part 2 in this series continues with the installation of the secondary tensioner using the tool specifically for this task. On this bike the oil pump was removed for inspection so a special task was done to re-align the pump, this is not normally part of the procedure but necessary for a pump repair or swap.

The cam alignment should be conducted before the cam carrier unit is reinstalled into the bike. The dashes should face each other as shown in the video.

A further centering procedure is required for the oil pump, only if the pump was removed from the unit.

On reassembly lifters should be returned to the same direction they were removed from.

The breather on this bike was epoxied together at the factory and not designed to be split, this may be the same for earlier bikes.
