been hearing a slight clacking from the top end.
noticed a hot smell last couple of days
so I decided to do more than just change the oil.
got all setup with tools and such laid out.got my cool smurf nirttle gloves out
.. stripped off the tank and checked valve lash..
the .06mm fit nicely and the 8 was a no go. perfect still.

so I popped the filter cover off.....
omg.. lucky she was still running..
it was covered in a black ..stuff is best way to explain it. with alot of metal..
one little area for oil to flow thru
since I got her with a little over 1000 miles I can only assume this was first filter cleaning..
maf cleaner and it looked lile new...
cleaned up the filter hole.. some fresh 10w40 and fired her up...
wow not a peep ot of the top end...
she never sounded this good..
later I will take her for a spin and see if she responds better since now she is getting the correct amount of oil!!!
