Where is the oil pan plug for a 2005 Harley Davidson 88 evvo
A general rule on any engine is that it will be at the lowest point on the oil pan under the bike. I think on your bike it is on the underside of the pan. To find the bolt find the rear foot peg and move straight downwards. It is usually a hex head bolt with a hex hole in the bolt head for a hex key, (Allen key). I recommend using a socket to remove the bolt as it gives a better grip on the bolt.
Clean the bolt and check the rubber 'O' ring it uses as a seal. If you are in Any doubt about it's condition Replace it anyway! They are usually cheap to buy. Clean the drain hole as well to prevent dirt getting into the oil pan. Once the oil has drained refit the drain plug bolt First, tightening it BY HAND. tighten to around 17 ft/lb. DO NOT over tighten as this will strip the threads on the bolt AND the drain plug hole, (an expensive fix!). Do this Before changing your oil filter and refilling the oil.
The bike needs to be fully upright to do an oil change so make sure it is securely mounted on a bike lift or a pit lane stand.
2004 FLSTCI. What causes it to run hot?
Maybe..but ushud hava datastream run to help pinpoint issue. You can git the computer reflashd or programd..but uneed an oldschool mechanic. Dealerships etc are usually not as xperiencd. Buy a clymer shop book for total upkeep&rebuild. If fuel system runs to lean the engine valves get hot n ruin the motor
