If you fit a lipped oil seal in place of the optimistic oil thrower ring, the primary case will never fill up,

How do we do this Alan?

Ive seen oil taps fitted to twins that have an extended handle that obstructs the kickstart lever when in the off position.
Does anyone know of a supplier for these?
Unscrewing the drain plug from an ally crankcase cant do the threads much good long term .




Contact me Ian Farrington from the Hants Section I get them from a Hyd Supplier
see Hants contact details in Jampot.

Cheers Ian

AMC Classic Spares use to do equivalents to the 'Ric Gibbon' oil pump conversions.
Worth checking with them to see if still available http://www.amcclassicspares.com/
