reasons to be cheerfull ,NOOOOOOOOT

OK ,so trundaling along at 80 ont way home from the manx yesterday when me oil light comes on about 15 miles from nottingham :shock:

,clocked it stright away n killed the motor

HMMMMMM HMMMMMMM ,start grumbly quite noisy lifters kill engine again ,home ont yellow taxi :rotfl:

,need to buy one o these fuckers at this rate ,pics say it all ,oil pump drive gear fooked,oil pump ok ,cam bushes ok ,mains ont offside fooked ,play in roller bearing felt when lifting shaft up n down ,dont need to put a clock on it ,THERE FOOKED ,milage 29000 ,not botherd about the crank got a spare ,REASONS YOU SHOULD change your oil pump gear ,1 recon my mains have worn because of all the oil bound ultra fine bebris in the oil can get into the mains via the gap in the circlip you can see in the pic at 11 oclock,big ends my survive due to the oil being filterd before the oil gets there ,2 if you DONT spot you oil light on like i did BLOODY expensive rebuild ,so if your gonna keep you XB ,GET a gear of pash and stand the cost of fitting and hopefully one thing less to worry about :yup:

So, yet another one bites the dust......should've spent more time on basic maintainance than grinding brake discs etc. If you're gonna renew that pinion needle race/RH main.....please post pix as I cant wait to see how you go about it.....new inner race has to be ground on the crank, new outer race has to be lapped in situ......both to within 0.0002'' for roundness and taper and a mega surface finish (16RMS from memory)......good luck

No worries......I have all the measuring equipement and tools required to meet the tolerances but you will need to split the crank to have the new inner race precision ground to size

Last orders for Lucky Hands oil pump drive gears, payment by Friday... viewtopic.php?p=206373#p206373 Order should be with me at the end of next week ready for posting out. I doubt I will be doing another order after this one, the original intent was to get a discount on a gear for myself (which I allowed someone else to have - i.e. I am still waiting for mine), but the interest grew. If think I am keeping stock, you are mistaken, so if you are thinking of one for the future, buy now to avoid disappointment... Note the state of Willy's engine, I would say he was lucky. If you want an insurance policy against this I suggest you get a gear. If you are daunted by having to fit it yourself, find simeone to do it for you (and that someone is not me), PM Maz or Tubbs or find a competent independant to help.

...........and as extra insurance, I would like to add, DO NOT cane your motor until it is properly warm ie at least 5 miles

78 quid for what ??......unless prices have gone up considerably (probably ) since I last stocked up...... Pinion brg. outer race - 10.20 Pinion brg. inner race - 14.43 Pinion brg. needle race - 9.34 Total = £33.97 incl. vat

You could do a Timken conversion on the primary side and control your end float.
