A technical forum for Model 7 to Mercury
Can anyone tell please me if it is possible to replace the float in a Amal twin carburettor without having to remove the whole unit and if so how is it done?
Surely these lower compression ? What`s the point of these on a standard motor ?
Just rebuilt my forks. New stanchions bushes and seals etc. What oil would you recommend.
Canada calling. I have finished restoring a '53 Model 7 and an odd oil leak has cropped up. Oil is leaking through the steel kick start sleeve and the inner cover of the gearbox. I have checked thoroughly and it is no leaking through the kick start and the steel sleeve itself. I have check the Andover Norton laydown gearbox drawing and there is an item #79 shown but not listed as Andover do not make this item. Firstly has anyone out there experienced this leakage, and second is item 79 a seal, shim etc. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Hi everyone, is there a switch for front brake lever? If there is something available please let me know where to buy one? I have looked on Amazon but didn't find one.
Many thanks Roger
My Dommi 88 is fitted with an SS Camshaft ( marked T2219@3 ) it seems. Does this require Pushrods and Valve springs as used on the 650 SS and Atlas models to be fitted ? I came accross this advice in the Haynes Manual (chapter 1 -22 ) . My Cam is with Newmans being inspected for possible re-profiling and I now have 4 NOS Cam followers thanks to NOC members and the NOC shop. Thanks , Wayne.
Hi all
I think I have the wrong kickstart shaft bush fitted to my gearbox it seems too long to be able to fit the kickstart return spring any ideas on a easy fix would be much appreciated
