So my sister’s friend who is a mechanic for the big karts otherwise known as cars told me two things:
1. My oil shouldn’t really be black. When I changed it after the old owner I probably just washed crap down into the clean oil.
I can change my oil, especially with the hose the previous owner added to the engine.
It is visible in the corner of that picture, I’m too lazy to go out to my boiling hot shed and get a better picture for a side tangent. Either way, I can and will change the oil. The real question is the chain.
They said it was too loose (it is) and I need a new one. I measured it and it seems to be 428 but it isn’t even 1/16” over a half. I noticed these bolts on my jackshaft:
They go into slits on the underside. I am wondering if I slide that back while also sliding the engine back to keep the belt good if I will have fixed my problems.
P.S. My tape measure had markings smaller than 1/16” for like 3” at the beginning. I don’t know what they were but the chain was still at 1/2”.
