WARRANTY

All S&S parts are guaranteed to the original purchaser to be free of manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of purchase.

In the event warranty service is required, the original purchaser must call or write S&S immediately with the problem. Some problems can be rectified by a telephone call and need no further course of action. A part that is suspect of being defective must not be replaced by a Dealer without prior authorization from S&S. If it is deemed necessary for S&S to make an evaluation to determine whether the part was defective, a return authorization number must be obtained from S&S. The parts must be packaged properly so as to not cause further damage and be returned prepaid to S&S with a copy of the original invoice of purchase and a detailed letter outlining the nature of the problem, how the part was used and the circumstances at the time of failure. If after an evaluation has been made by S&S and the part was found to be defective, repair, replacement or refund will be granted.

Instruction

1. Remove engine top end following the OEM service manual procedures.

2. Remove the OEM piston jets using caution to not drop anything into the crankcase. Note: A rag may be placed in the case to catch anything that may fall.

3. Install the OEM self tapping screw in each hole without the jet to increase the tapped depth of the hole.
   

4. Check the flatness on the gasket surface. If pulled thread material is present, by hand carefully use a 5/16” drill bit to deburr the hole. Be sure to catch all debris.

   Note: Starting the lower screws first reduces the risk of gasket misalignment
