Magnetic Tappet Holder
Stock piston jets sometimes fail . Fact . Sumping oil on Twin Cam and M-8 engines , noisy tappets at startup , excessive top end heat - all of these conditions can easily be diagnosed incorrectly , which can lead to wasted time , money and effort or , worse yet , an expensive engine failure . The check valve inside can be open at idle , adding too much oil to the crankcase , resulting in a sumping condition . Or , worse yet , the top end of the engine can be oil starved causing heat and premature damage or engine failure . JIMS has now updated its piston jet test stand to include BOTH applications - Milwaukee-Eight and Twin Cam . " Before you spend time , money and effort chasing a problem in the wrong direction , be sure that the piston jets are functioning properly . For more quick and concise information on piston jet failure rates
Changing or upgrading cams , cam support plate and the oil pump is one of the most common tasks done on Harley-Davidson engines . This new and simple low-cost tool will easily hold the tappets in the tappet bores when the cam is removed . Simply install the tool over the tappet cover and the rare earth magnets will magnetically hold the tappet in place while performing any cam chest work - a time saver for any technician . This tool is designed to work on both Twin Cam and Milwaukee-Eight engines . Included with the tool is a form fitted tray that will protect the magnets from damage when stored in the technician ’ s toolbox .
