I did have problems with my B50 when running at 4,500+ rpm for an hour or two. It would wet sump. After unseating the non return seal the problem went away. ...

Perhaps a moment to consider the humble but efficient plunger pump would be helpful. It is known as a positive displacement pump, meaning it pumps a fixed...
The BSA pumps in question are gear pumps but have a similar feed to scavenge ratio as mentioned. If your bike leaked before fitting a filter it will still...

Same as, but I use a hard-chromed timing side main bearing journal rather than the end feed conversion. Percy Tait raced a 500 Triumph for quite some while...
Can't think of a post-war BSA with a piston pump, but they work well enough on Triumphs. However, it is possible to fit a cartridge type filter in the feed...
Alpha Bearings, Netherton, Dudley. 01384 255151. They might put you onto T&G Motorcycles in Milton Keynes, best give them a ring and see what the score is. ...
agreed. The only increased oil from the breather that I experienced after fitting the oil filter from Ron Halem on my '59 Spitfire was due to fitting the...
Hello All I have gear box troubles, which I have never had before on the trusty A10 (swingarm bitsa). All was working brilliantly until one day last summer...

The B-B Micro Digital ignition curve shows max advance starting at 3500. I did check my mechanical tach against a digital tach off a coil and both are ...
Can anyone make sense of this statement: I have found that my MKIII Commando likes the oil level around the "L" mark on the dip stick. If it is much higher...
The 2CV filter is the one generally used. Admittedly,the 2CV has a much more powerful oil pump than the BSA, but it works a treat. If the skirt valve is...
Rick, looks like a very worthwhile conversion. I am also plagued with the 6 spring clutch on a B33. Great slide-show as well. thanks for that. can you give a...
Pierre, As I told you in one of the off list replies a while ago, some oils have a very high film strength and will produce a stable foam when being used in a...
Trevor, I am not sure I understand your response!? This afternoon I did 4 runs which got progressively better, the last one being pretty much perfect. I...
Pierre You are getting confused with the terminology. A65's have 3 totally separate breathers. 1) crankcase ( the one you are currently battling with. 2)...
i am in the process of setting up a 6 spring clutch for a 50, b33... and it really is working out to be a fair waste of time...either slips or drags...i think...
my 3 year exp with a A65 oil drips was that there never was a pattern...sometimes a bunch... sometimes nothing... maybe it dropped free on that last big...
Pierre, Now I think we are starting to get some where. If your bike wet sumps 3/4 of the oil tank in 3 days there is some thing drastically wrong with the oil...

Trevor, Now I have managed to confuse most everyone. When I wrote 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 Full, here is what I meant to convey: I graduated my oil tank dip stick...
Trevor, I have no oil coming out of the oil tank breather (vent)...far from it. The return pipe inside the oil tank is spurting/flowing oil merily and keeps...
