New UL-1 Water Jacket

[Kfoss1]

The jacket was angled too far toward battery tray making it impossible to install batteries. So I went ahead and took the water jacket apart figuring that it would be easy to Oil, Reassemble, and Align properly...NOT! This water jacket is a BITCH to reinstall and work on as is from the factory. But I finally got it installed and sealed by using a smaller Orings and Loctite.

Rock On.....hopefully!

Detox, any test runs yet to see if it works?

Not Yet, but end caps appear to be seated square against O rings now. I did pressure test using air and did not here any leaks.

I just may have to go get that new hydro now so I can really understand this small issue.

This is no small issue. This is world wide

Look here...this dealer in Hawaii has a problem also:

What is the best fix for a leaking motor cooling ring?
I have two customers who have the leaking problem.....

I know it is a big issue. My point with my responses. Anyone here should simply follow Jay's advice and take it apart and try to re-seal it.

At least fill the system with water and blow on it hard to see if it leaks...many may not. That was my only point of this thread response.

Steven expects some motors in about a week so hopefully he can come up with a nice jacket for us very soon!
