timing chain lubrication

Forums

happy new year!

 I have a late Model 50 motor, and am just getting engine assembled for it’s first run later in spring. Timing chain: it has standard cam bush, which should let small amount of oil into chain case. Any problem with greasing chain as well... standard grease?   cheers, Jan.

... my ES2 always seems to be well lubricated. A few squirts with the oil can on assembly should be enough. Do you have the little drain union with a bit of 3/16" copper pipe to keep the drips away from the exhaust?

yes, to run into a small catch tank behind crankcases ( it’s a special, NOT original!) Thanks.
