Quick question about Starwheel

I am just wondering if it is possible to move the starwheel to far forward? My buddy and I adjusted his starwheel but we did not go to crazy with it because we did not know if you spun it to far forward would come apart. Thanks again for your time and help

Hello

Me again... I have mine as far forward as it will go... and really it only has to be as loose as the spring will allow or till you can move it. Dont worry about it. If you wanna remove the springs and all, you can gut the AFC housing, but be warned with an aggressive plate, and Gutted starwheel housing, EGTS will be thru the roof!

Hey there again, thanks for the input, good to know, so will the starwheel only turn forward so much, then it stops, or does it keep turning and then come apart. Yeah, i read someplace that you can run it without the afc spring inside. Thank again

I think it can only go forward so far before it stops.

thanks for the reply, like i said, we were not sure if the starwheel would just come completely off, so we did not turn it to to much, but if you stay that it will stop when it is all the way forward, we just might try turning it some more, thanks again

Crank it forward until it won't go anymore. Relax a couple clicks to save the threads. Slide the AFC housing full forward on slots and you'll really get the fuel.
