Well that makes me feel better. After putting another 30 or 40 miles on it today. I put it on the lift to prepare to pull the cover. I still might say the heck with it. Before I put the cam cover back on, I double checked my cap and banjo bolts. 10Nm for the cap bolts and 8Nm for the banjo bolts. All was well. Like I said, my only fear was a banjo bolt head coming off after re-assembly. But I can't convince my self that would have happened. I would think i would have felt the bolt 'soften' up during torqueing. I have to admit, 8Nm isn't much. Those arent under mechanical pressure, only hydraulic I'd think.

Wouldn't you'd think if a cam was receiving none or far less lubrication, you'd know it real soon?

ride on!!
