"FETCH IT THEN!!!!"
Hi all....
I'm soon going to take my 77 apart and give it the classic " spit, polish & re-lube tune & I wanted to ask you all if there was anything I need especially to do the job. I've never taken a Springer apart before & I'm not sure what lube/polishing equipment and what bits to do?
I'd have thought it would be kinda obvious when I got it apart but thought I'd ask first so I was prepared.
Thanks
Rhys

To degrease I like engine/brake cleaner though you can use petrol. Small files, wet and dry paper, a cordless drill (for spinning the piston) rags and metal polish.

I use Autosol, but Brasso should work. Remember to degrease after polishing

Also.. what lube for everything, I'm not a lube nut so I only want to use one type for everything really... I've got a small pot of abbey sm50.. will that do?
Thanks
