Subject: Oiling the rocker arms
Date: Thu, 20 Jan 2005 11:37:21 -0800
Just rebuilt my TR3 engine. Before starting, I rigged up a shaft and drove
the oil pump with a drill to precharge the oil lines and check for leaks.
To my surprise there was no oil coming up to the rocker arms. Checking
further I found the only path for the oil was from the rear cam bearing.
There didn't seem to be any direct connection to the oil galley. Am I
missing something, just how does the rocker shaft get oil ?
A second problem, I found I'm missing an oil galley plug. The Moss
catalog list the part as NA. Is there another source?
