IMPORTANT FACT:   It is misunderstood by some riders that if the thermovalve fails to operate it will block oil flow and damage the motor. This is not true. If the thermovalve failed in any operating position, oil flow would not be disrupted.

  • Small channel lock pliers
  • 1/4" spin tite
  • Hose clamp
  • Lubrication (WD 40)
HOSE FITTING INSTALLATION
