Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Ok, thanks. That's unfortunate. I hope you get it sorted out. Sounds like a good idea.

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Thanks guys. Interesting setup. It sure would be nice to know the oil pressure. Temp too.

Garry - is that a 123 ignition you have? I was looking at those a few years ago but didn't think they made them for our motor. Can you tell me about it??

Thanks again guys!

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

I may just do that. I sill want to know what the pressure is, especially after I replace the valve.

I sure wish I had the spin on filter too!

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Well it turns out it was the oil pressure relief. I cleaned it out with a brush and reseated it with a few taps. Apparently it's very sensitive to bits like John said. I haven't checked the pressure, but the light stays off at idle. I'm ordering springs and plungers anyway from Dale. Thanks John Sen...

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Ok. Thanks John. Dale at HT said that they had the springs and plugers but no oil pumps, so hopefully it isn't that.

Is there any kind of screen on the pick up that could be clogged?

I think I might pick up an inexpensive test gauge on the way home to get some actual readings.

Thanks again

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Thanks John. I do have the mushroom type. I took both of them out. They weren't seized so I hope it's just some small piece that got stuck in there. I'll clean it and reinstall tomorrow. Also, my switch is next to the cooler. I measured the springs: Bypass (lighter one) - 1.762 (should be between 1....

Re: Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Is it possible either the pressure relief or bypass spring broke? Or got stuck open suddenly?

Sudden Low Oil Pressure

Just when I thought I was getting close to hit the trails again...a new problem. My oil light suddenly started coming on at idle and it wasn't even hot yet. Normally, it would flicker at idle if it was hot out and I had run it at top speed for a bit but when it cooled down a bit it was fine. Now, I ...

Re: Replacement dynastart solenoid

Thanks John. The first thing I thought was the battery because it had been sitting for a couple years so I got a new one. I topped it off before installing. Interesting what you said about the lights as I did try it with them on and they did not dim. I tried it with both solenoids and it was the sam...

Re: Replacement dynastart solenoid

John - It looked pretty good. I also rotated it several times and tried it. Nothing. Tried it with the belt off and nothing. It works now though! Jim - Trail ride sounds good! Just have to change the oils. I'm missing the the small rubber seals that go on the tube inside the oil filter housing. I ha...

Re: Replacement dynastart solenoid

Thank you John. You're right, it wasn't the solenoid. I ran the wires that went to terminal 31 to the mounting screws. When I tried to start it, same thing except it clicked a lot over and over. So I pulled the dynastarter and checked the brushes and were almost new. When I put it back together, it ...

Replacement dynastart solenoid

I went to start the Hafi after sitting for a couple weeks and no start. Just click from the solenoid. I replaced the battery since it's old anyway and same thing. So I pulled the solenoid and it's not serviceable. So I followed a post from Jim LaGuardia and purchased a remote solenoid. The problem i...

Re: Strange Haflinger

That's pretty cool. I'm thinking maybe some kind of delivery vehicle where the driver has to get out often. But then again, it has all those seats.

Re: Twisted just a little too hard - Weber 32ics accelerator

I got a reply back from Dale at HT. He has them in stock :D I'm just waiting for a reply on how to purchase that and a few other parts. Thanks for the help guys.
