Fueling Short Sump Plug

[Dan SC]

It might be a little over board for some people but it runs a lot better now and a new engine would be about 8000.00 dollars

I`m wondering how a new oil pump and a sump plug makes the engine run a lot better.:Shrug:

He might mean… The lifter’s and pushrods made it run better?..

First knowing machining like I do,( 40 year toolmaker /machinist). The tapped hole in the lower engine case would only have to be tapped an extra 1/8 deep and the plug would defiantly interfere with oil flow, all it takes is for an operator to set his tool height wrong or type in an incorrect tool offset. As far as the oil pump, Harley has made several upgrades for better flow and to help with sumping. And a cooler running engine is a more efficient engine.

If it were sumping, you would have known it as soon as it happened, it is not just a small performance loss.

Yep……

When my 2017 Sumped it was like I was pulling a tractor pull sled…...
