That's cheap, they take a lot longer than 95p to make.

I did manage to locate some similar screws but non with a pallister head.

Just started on Amal 2 jet . Jets are marked 02 & 09. Is this correct

Post by **Charles uk** » Wed Aug 17, 2011 6:11 pm

The main jet is marked 40, 45 or 50 & I can't remember what the other is, are you reading them upside down?

40 = 25:1
45 = 10:1
50 = 10:1 perhaps cold climate.

Starting to think about putting everything back together. Driveshaft is in really good condition but does it need a finish ?

You could paint it Terry or smother it in waterproof grease! Either works!

Drive tube giving problems - had to drive out again and scrape some paint off .

I have fitted new nipples to all the gearboxes I have rebuilt so far. You can then put SAE140 in a cheap new grease gun and jobs a good 'un.

I have some nipples if you want a few. There also plenty on the bay. BSP thread,

Avoid the Zinc plated ones, the zinc lasts seconds!

Help ?

1/4 BSF

All this talk of nipples is getting my SFs and SPs mixed up..

H-A is of course correct as was the earlier post.
