I just did the 5K service on my 2007 Electric Glide and changed the oil in all three holes. I did not realize that the case was alumina (sp). I might have tightened the drain plugs too tight after reading some of the post here. I went back out and loosen the drain plugs and then just tighten them back up, but not real tight like I did at first.
The question is, what damaged could I have done. I a little freaked out about this as I have waited years to get a Electric Glide and now in two weeks I might have messed it up.
Second question is the service manual states 4 qts of engine oil and I put a little over 3 ½. I had a Sportster about 3 years ago and if I put the amount of oil in that the dealer told me to it would blow out the air cleaner. So I put about a ½ quart less and that seemed to work. Is this a problem?
Thanks
