My dealer told me that early Pan Ams were having problems with a plug on SUB-ASSY,OIL,OIL FEED HSB.
Apparently the plug would back out and result in failure to lubricate the top end resulting in some serious engine damage.
They recommended replacement with an updated unit to prevent engine damage. Part no. is 62700328
As a precaution I had the part installed.
They stated that if Harley recalled early Pan Ams for this problem they would reimburse me for my out of pocket cost ($540.67). Cost included the part, two gaskets, an o-ring , oil ,filter and labor.
I was wondering if any others have had their dealer recommend this.
I bought my bike ( Pan Am Special with ARH and spoke wheels) on July 3, 2021 and I have 5400 miles on it.
I have had several problems with it including needing a new engine wiring harness: a leaky left front fork seal; numerous electrical glitches ( many of which didn't show up as error codes) and recalls.
Anyone else on the forum have any info on this?
Thanks,
Dutch
