Poty overcrank engine

ME4415 part 20 oiler

 

The oiler is made up of three components. The cap, reservoir and what is the third and what’s it’s purpose.

I’m sure Stew will confirm but I think its just a spacer.

 

When Stew originally made the engine it was as a vertical wall engine (my prefered configuration) and it had oilers to suit being rotated 90degrees, I guess the oilers for the horz setup are a compromise and the spacers keep the oilcup away from the moving parts.

PS Stew, any chance of posting a pic of the wall version for people that have not seen it.

Hi Eric

 

Jason is correct what he says the other bit is just a spacer to lift it away from the moving parts.

 

I did make it so it could be displayed vertically all that required is 90 deg oilers as Jason said and I did actually make the oilers. the only problem with displaying it vertical is the stability of the display, I’ve a couple of young grand kids and I didn’t wan’t to risk them pulling it over on themselfes.

I’ve posted photobucket image codes, I don’t have a complete picture of it as a vertical.

 

If any body wants a copy of the 90 deg oiler just send me a PM.

 

Thanks for your interest

 

Stew
