  1. Right! Also the SDH has been discontinued few years ago, new version according to DID is: SCA0412ASVX114
  2. So I decided to contact didchain, and what an amazing customer service! Here is the official answer as reference if anyone search in the future:
  3. Called my Honda dealer, confirmed me I had the good one based on his system. Than he called the Importer and the guy told him it was the exact same chain, but SCR is more robust and since it was confusing people, they decided to import/sell SCR only and doesn't sell SCA anymore... so now I don't understand why it doesn't fit better than that.
  4. Yeah like I said, it's not what I ordered, I received wrong one. But after looking at specs, the only difference from the good one is 0.15mm height. It seems to clear cylinder cover and it's same pitch so I think it should be good. Ordered from Honda dealer! Really would like @shadetree opinion on that chain!
  5. Humm are you 100% sure, this is not an engine assembly grease it's more for chassis parts like this one: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/rotella-special-duty-moly-grease-400-g-0280841p.html no ??
  6. I'm also trying to find molybdenum disulfide grease for my Camshaft, called 2 car parts store 2 ATV shop including Honda dealer... can't find it! Only thing I've found is Permatex 81950 Ultra Slick Engine Assembly Lube, seems to be for camshaft but not moly
  7. @shadetree @Goober your thoughts on the chain? I took a picture of the "fitment", don't know if it should perfectly sit on the gear or those small gaps are normal. I don'T want to do it twice 🙂
  8. Just received my chain, it's not what ordered! I don't understand anything in all those numbers / letters on chains. Will this fit? I asked for SCA-0412A SDH, I finally found detailed informations and it SCR seems a bit stronger, narrower (10.3mm vs 11mm) and have a bit more height (6.85mm vs 6.70mm)
  9. Yeah I know, but if you look at my picture, shaft arm is touching throttle link so I don't have any play there
  10. But if you look at video, it doesn't seems that bad on synchronisation. @shadetree your thoughts on that? I also would like your opinion on my hondabond question 🙂
  11. Today I rebuilded my Carburetor, first time I do that. Now in the manual they say "adjust synchronization by opening or closing the slot in the throttle link" but I don't have any slot, it has been removed by previous owner, can this cause issue? Here is a video showing my throttle in action: https://photos.app.goo.gl/2mGoSNtGSbGJUcEC6 Thanks!
  12. Perfect, will not soak them they are used. Yeah I already hate that lol, will try with plastic scraper. Another question, for my cylinder head cover I wanted to use Hondabond HT but the dealer near me said they are using permatex ultra grey or black!!! I was very surprised since even Permatex say: Source: https://www.permatex.com/ten-common-gasketing-mistakes/ They only have Hondabond 4 in stock right now, can I use that for my cylinder head cover or I should order HT ?
  13. Ok thanks, will take a look because they don't have any gasket remover in stock near me and shipping will take too long
  14. Also, since my secondary clutch will be out for 1 week do I have to soak it in new oil before installing it? And I saw in another post that loctite is required on secondary clutch four bolts?? Nothing about that in manual
  15. And I already have a Question, what do you recommend to cleanup my crankcase / cover, remove the old gasket and prepare surface for new one ? Think to use a wood chisel very gently to remove old gasket and I have 600 grit Emery Cloth but I'm pretty sure it's a band idea to use that 🙂 So what do you recommend?
  16. Here is the Centrifugal clutch from my "parts vtt". On the side by side picture, the old one is on the left and the "new old one" on the right. Arms are worn too but it seems impossible to find Aftermarket so I hope it will do the job
  17. Hi! I never owned a VTT and I'm a Software Engineer with very basin knowledge in Mechanics. Last autumn, I got 2 Fourtrax (86' and 91') that have been stored for a few years for cheap, and one more for pieces. I already have a tread on another forum but @shadetree really really want me to post my projects here 😉 This thread is for the 86' restoration! Plastics are not in good shape, but I'll use it on my woodland so I don't care.. for now 🙂 First I changed battery, Spark plug, drained old gas / oil than used a bit of Sea Foam in gas tank and Marvel Mystery Oil inside the cylinder to make it start! Now the real fun start, engine doesn't sounds good when running and something continue spinning after stopping it: https://photos.app.goo.gl/7jEyWZkM99TYcr5u5 With the help of @shadetree I confirmed that Timing chain is dead, I can insert adjuster almost completely and after removing the cover, I saw damages caused by the chain probably hitting cover while running And the spinning sounds is caused by the from Centrifugal clutch one way bearing totally dead, and the linings are totally worn too. Hopefully, the Centrifugal clutch and Bearing on my "parts vtt" seems in good shape, si I will use this one. Now I'm waiting for a new chain, gasket, orings, sealing washers this week!
  18. Yep Canucks 🙂 I'm from Quebec, Canada and it also make it harder to find some parts hehe
  19. Hi guys, I'm making my first steps in the ATV world and it's starting with thee restoration of 2 old Fourtrax 350, 1991 and 1986. Currently the 91 is in good shape, started to work on the 86 which need more love. @shadetree helped me a lot already and recommended to me join this forum!
