oil button diagnosis
#1
My oil button isn't popping out though engine seems healthy and sounds ok!
What is my diagnosis route? - do I start off with rodding the jets, or just look for breached membrane and find some bacon box wrapping? Or just bang it in a particular place if it hasnt been used for 20 years?

Could it be that the button is caught by the rim on the front ?

It doesn't hert to check the jets.

ButĀ First thing is to fit a proper oil gauge, only needs to be temporary. So you can check what oil pressures you are getting.

Then you will know if the button is at falt.

good plan. I think as mine is largely remade from the chassis rails up, it probably deserves a permanent gauge perhaps - so I have something else to entertain passengers with.
