raynerd:
Stew- did you work out why yours was running upside down? Mine also works much better belly up which will need correcting ....

Darren:
I'll take a guess, could it be something to do with the downwards movement of the piston when it's going back in under pressure when upside down.  :scratch:

sbwhart:
After I'd soldered the bush I expected it to run correct way but no, it was only after I'd got rid of the sticky oil that it ran OK. I think what was happening, upside down it was getting a bit of help from gravity giving the extra momentum to overcome the sticky oil. You've probably got a little bit of friction in the system, with little engines their biggest enemy is friction, they like things on the slack side.

As the my old dad always said "a little bit of clearance never got in the way"

 :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Have fun

Stew

raynerd:
ummm - so my constant application of oil may not be helping! I still think it could be the crank....anyway, I`ll take a look when I get back in a couple of weeks. Cheers
Chris

Stilldrillin:

As if I haven`t got enough to do already......  ::)
