Fuel Pressure Regulator

Fuel Pressure Regulator

I read on the @distang IG page that the internals of the pressure regulator can be hosed without any visible exterior corrosion so it's recommended to preemptively replace them.

This is not strictly just for the crankcase breather mod ... filed here by mistake.

After some research, it looks like the best option is to buy a 1 meter length of this tubing. 

It's on Parts Fiche "FUEL PUMP/FUEL FILTER 16_0809" Item 8

Although it does not seem to be mentioned in the Clymer manual, my understanding is that these clutch mounting bolts must be replaced each time the clutch is removed.

DYMO RhinoPRO Industrial-Strength Permanent Adhesive Fabric Label Tape 3 8-inch 18-foot Cassette White

This is the vinyl tape I use with the label maker. It seems to work quite well and I've had the labels last for over 5 years out in the elements.

Cooling System O-ring 27 3X2 4

Cooling System O-ring 27 3X2 4

This is a orange/red o-ring that is used on one of the "Water Connector" (cooling system fitting) on top of the engine.

 

The same part is also needed when reinstalling the water pump:

 

For the water pump, which you would think would be listed in the cooling system section, the part can be found in the engine fiche 11_4695 WATERPUMP/OILPUMP - OIL FILTER.

It's the same part number: 11 11 1460392

Thermostat

Thermostat

My strong suspicion is that the whole reason the motor started burning so much oil all of a sudden is that my thermostat failed and I did not notice because of the simultaneous semi-failure of the temperature gauge. 

So Duncan kindly bought me a new thermostat ... before we knew that this engine swap project would need to be done. Regardless, this new thermostat is going in when the bike goes back together.

It's on Fiche 17_0623 RADIATOR - THERMOSTAT/FAN.

Intake Manifold O Ring

Intake Manifold O Ring

The O-Ring is not where you would think it would be in this parts fiche. 

It's on the fiche labelled FUEL TAP-KARCOMA 11_4690 in the engine section. It's part 03 on the fiche. 

My bike has one for each throttle body.

Copper Exhaust Gaskets

Copper Exhaust Gaskets

Every time you remove the exhaust you have to replace these copper crush gaskets. Make sure that the old gaskets are removed. They can sometimes get stuck up in the head.

It's part #2 on fiche 18_0898 'EXHAUST SYSTEM'. It's called "Gasket ring C32X40".

Water Works Heavy Duty Degreaser Concentrate 1 Gallon

Water Works Heavy Duty Degreaser Concentrate 1 Gallon

For the parts cleaner, this is the degreaser I have been using. Since this is the first parts cleaner I've ever owned, I don't know if this a good or poor option but it claims to be largely biodegradable and seems to work quite well.

The parts cleaner (see tools) can hold four gallons but apparently needs over two so that the pump pickup will work.
