My close personal Friend Mr Murphy
Is always with me, all the time.
So anyway way back when the bike was new, the dealer insisted on using Syn 3 in the primary at the 5 K service, I asked them to use Formula +, as per the manual, but they insisted that Harley says Syn 3 is OK. By the time I was at 10 K service the primary was making a knocking noise, they were "concerned" about the noise and asked me if it was OK to go in and look for problems...so OK. Then they filled it with Formula + and the noise has been gone. So...today I'm installing the Screaming Chicken manual tensioner and I find that when they were in the primary chasing the noise, when they reinstalled the auto tensioner they stripped the bolts, as in the threads on the bolts are rolled over. So now I have to run up to the dealer again to order new bolts. I sure wish Murphy would give me a break.  .

Being I have it up on the Pitbull lift in the garage, we'll probably get a good, 4.8 - 5.4, shaker tonight. Hope the tie straps keep it tight.

Getting the Screaming Chicken manual primary chain shoe installed.
Had to S/O the bolts from dealer, they only had one in stock. When I picked the two up, I asked if they ordered three so they would have two in stock on the shelf. They gave me a blank look and said why would we need some? OK then... One pic is of the automatic one I took out and total mileage on it.   Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

Did you bend over those lock tabs on those two bolts before you buttoned it up?

I get mine serviced at the zoo by partially trained monkeys. So far they are better than Harley techs.
