Default Still cant find problem
Have a 2005 ultra got used w/ bad chain tensioners etc. put in new style cam plate w/ andrews cams and she went great for a few weeks. Coming home other day noticed on oil temp gage goin up. It allways ran @ 220-230 and now was headin for 300. Made it home and since have changed wires, plugs, oil, filter, front motor mount, new battery, and reprogramed pciii w/ new map they gave me for cams pipes etc. After all this it still not ok as the plugs look extremely lean, running hot, and wont go over 3000 rpm w/ no power. Also changed fuel filter and gas tant was clean, thought maybe water? Out of ideas except dealer which i hate to do. Any thoughts?

If you didn't get the oil pump aligned correctly, or cut an O-ring it is "dry sumping" and will cause some of the symptoms you describe.Especially the loss of power.
