Successfully completing projects by people who arent fully well versed in every step of the project requires careful disassembly & keeping nuts.bolts & parts organized. I watched a man diagnose my 460 Merc with a flat lobe on the cam, we went & got the kit, he went to his tool box & put the tools in his roll about. 8 hours after I pulled into his driveway, we were washing our hands. He tossed nuts & bolts in that rollabout w/o a care, & he Never went back to the tool box & he used every tool he had taken out,, He knew every step, where every bolt & nut was. He was a Ford mechanic for 30 years,.,WE dont have that level of experience with these bikes, so we, at least I, have to take things apart carefully, I put bolts back where they go when I can, in parts Ive taken off, I put fasteners in baggies with a note, I tape things to other things,,so that if something keeps me from finishing it when I think I should, I wont be shafted.
I took a camcorder apart & found the problem, 2 years later I got the part & put it together. Because I had put all the subassemblies with their fasteners, I could do it,.
