Default My powervalve cam t thing doesn't look right

I would think that rod thing would be connected to the cam? Or am I just freaking nuts? I have attached a picture of mine, and the one below is from another thread.

Thanks
Rob

Yep, mine would be the small one... first time I have had this off so I don't know? Factory Direct, as they say. is that what happens when the weld breaks off?

Yeah, the stud broke off of the cam on yours. Good news is it should run way better when you get it fixed. Bummer.

There's your answer. Cheap part, easy fix. They should really re-design that part, the rest of the PV is bulletproof.

I may call halls tomorrow and see if they will get me a new cam, or maybe Clay will....lol. No GG dealers near katy, tx, so popping in for a quick warranty job is not so easy

FYI: Hall's Cycles is sending me a new cam plate $0.0 as a warranty item.
Trying to decide if I want to drain things and adjust the tension on the power valve rod or not. ..

I think that I may have to wait until it cools down. 90 in the barn at night and I just wilt. thinking about a port-a-cool, but I wonder how well they work in Houston, TX.
