SHE LIVES,just

After trouble with the starter not engaging properly and not getting any oil pressure for 5 mins because some p*at forgot to prime the pump and fill the filter. She finally started yesterday

Only two problems, 1st a knocking from the sump that turned out to be the oil pickup pipe the i'd got braized shorter was twisted and being flicked by the crankshaft so it hit the side of the sump.

2nd if more complicated, the No1 cyclinder isn't firing, I know because the other three down pipes have gone a cool bronze hue, there's a spark that the plug so i think the blame has to be the barrel on the Dellorto 40's, What do people think?

Thanks in advance, time to pack for the show, you'll find me walking about with a big stupid grin

ATB Dan.
