Response to: | 6579 |
Ok, I got it running. Only ran it for a few seconds, sounds great. Can anybody give me some info on how to check oil pressure? Looks like has a pump on front and 2 oil lines. One goes up to a sight glass and connects right above cam on front cover ( I dont see any oil pass through sight glass). Other oil line goes back mid point of oil pan. Tried to post pic, mot sure if it loaded. Help much appreciated. Thanks ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- I have a 1919 Z. Good spark and carb looks good. Ready to see if she will fire up. How do you check / set oil level on this engine? Motorcycle mechanic / machinist many years but first time owned Henderson 4. Any other tips before crank, been sitting for years. Thanks |
