Oil tell-tale

Hi, anyone prepared to part with an M20 oil tell-tale or any parts from one, as fitted to '39-'40 machines?
Needed as part of the process to return my 1940 WM20 to its original condition.

Re: Oil tell-tale

Hello Rupert,

There half of one in eBay.com (the US site) in case that's of any use to you. Perhaps you can ask them to unscrew it from the alloy cover, and make a deal that way?

eBay item number:235266729463

Best wishes,

Re: Oil tell-tale

Hi Alan thanks for taking the trouble to reply, but that ebay item looks to be a postwar timing cover with the breather assembly which moved to that position from the drive side crankcase about 1948?
The oil telltale connects to a union on the crankcase itself below the front of the timing cover.
Thanks anyway.
Rupert

Re: Oil tell-tale

Here is an old thread on the subject. Maybe contact Bastiaan or Michiel for any update?

Also as it happens, the breather timing case cover (#65-2143) was used in 1940 for the WB30. (with the non winged BSA logo) Ron
