Here in action with 100% kerosene, injection pressure is very low at 8 bar, this is something I am working on

It has been an ongoing project for a couple years, with many interruptions

Hello, great write up. Do you have any techniques for machining injection pump bore? Also injection pump piston itself? Some sort of lapping perhaps? What sort of tolerances are acceptable here? I have a similar project in progress but currently use tiny nitrile O rings for seals, not ideal.

Caffeine free diet coke? not quite red-bull chuck!

Any updates on this one?

Very nice little project! It will be for oil retention im sure

yes, exactly that, you have some pateince!

That is looking ace! Are you going to attemp to machine the detail around the valve stem? that would prove very testing indeed!

well done mate, looks good! sounds very nice

turn it upside down?

why would you do that when they are adjustable? they can be preloaded and then locked off with the locknuts (or am I missing the point) plus one side is already on an eccentric bush for initial set up, i think they are past the centre of the shaft, so when "nipped up" they tighten onto the shaf...

A 1/2" ball mill would give the radius and clearance for the shaft, then as mentioned use angle blocks to mill the flats and drill the holes for the rollers.

looking very nice, do you have any info on the bluing process? was it hot or cold blued? thanks

exactly, get them used up!

thats right, ive used it for bushes before, it is wet with oil when you machine it, especially if it gets warm!, im guessing there are various grades though? not sure how this will affect the seal on the valve seat though? Great stuff thus far though, im am watching with great pleasure.

looking very traditional, and heavy! brilliant

There is a place near me called Finzean, its pronounced "fing-en" also a place near that called Stachan its pronounced "strawn"

ok i see, what are the active ingredients in bradex easy start then? (airosol easy start?)

lee and lie are pronounced the same from where i come from :D ly is different though lol

I see the said problem, nothing wrong with a few beers, built many a car engine with the help of a couple of lagers!
