Hello listers,
This was on the Morgan list, and I felt it would be of particular use
to Triumph enthusiasts as well:
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"It pays to maintain your gudgeon pins in tip-top condition, for
otherwise your gudgeon pins may fail to operate smoothly or could
become 'un-pinned'. This could lead to 'flasking'.
"The pins are easily located beside the wet-pinioned flange's
journal-piece and should be inspected at regular intervals. Apply a
few droplets of proprietary lustralising agent or anticoagulant flux,
ensuring that it is well bedded in between the splines. Do NOT
over-tighten the crux bolt.
"Check periodically for signs of seepage where the gaiters rub against
the main rostrum on the 'up' stroke. Wipe BOTH end with a swatch of
lint-free scrim, then use a strobe and calipered (or nib-ended)
pargeting tool to check the inner tension. If EITHER the bezel OR
variable arm is thwarted or 'tram-lining', switch OFF and replace the
grommets without delay."
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Are those Morgans weird cars or what?
Regards,
Jim Wallace
