[QUOTE="kweber, post: 33397, member: 3619"] I've finally come to the conclusion that I'm just going to buy my own service manual. The pictures of the procedures in the photocopies I mentioned above were almost impossible make out. There are 12 allenhead capscrews holding the motor together. The service procedure says to remove 10 of them and leave two in to hold the motor together until it is removed from the carrier, the carrier is the part that is mounted to the chaincase and holds the shaft and bearings that drive the sprockets. It would make sense to leave the bolts in as it would also help in keeping things lined up and held together during reassembly. The problem is I can't determine which two capscrews to leave in. You would think they would be a little shorter since they apparently aren't helping hold the motor to the carrier but I took out and measured and replaced four of the most likely ones judging from the picture and they were all the same length. The motor in the pictures from the service procedures is not exactly like the one I am working on. Mine has BOSS O-ring fittings and the one in the pictures appears to be O-ring face and the case drains appear to be in different locations. I took all the numbers off of the little I.D. tag and spent at least an hour trying to find something on the internet to compare it to but couldn't find anything. Unfortunately, I can't make out the name of the manufacturer. I'm still open to suggestions or ideas but probably going to be ordering the manual. [/QUOTE]
