yea...well...I just went through and actually looked at the manual, read some posts on here, and well...I am just saying, I might need to take the cylinder head cover off to have a look-see. Not sure if it is needed or not, but it might just happen anyways.
With the knowledge that this is going to make me the typical newbie and idiot...I did back the bolt out till I saw the un-threaded part of it that the guide pivots on. Go easy on me. The whole time I kept on telling myself, you really shouldn't do this, but in my exploratory nature I did it anyways. My mother tells the story of when she came home from work one day and I had taken every thing I could find that ran on batteries apart and had them laying on the kitchen table. I cannot say that I remember it myself, lol.
So when I saw the threaded part, just barely mind you, I felt the resistance of the guide(now that I know what it was) and immediately threaded it back in. I did not take it all the way out, and it never lost the tension, as in it felt like it was still holding on to, through, the hole in the guide. I am sure that it is still in the guide, I think, I would think that if it were not then there would be some awful noise or something coming from there? I do have to say there seemed to be a different noise than usual, but I changed the oil and am hoping that is it. There was about a third to half more quart of oil in there than what should have been. I am thinking the guy selling it put more in to try and hide some noise. Not entirely sure about the logic of that, but it sounds good.
Thoughts, reprimands, scourging anyone?
