Re-Oiling Oilite Bearings/Bushes BSA B31
Просмотров 653 месяца назад
so i bought some new old stock top Bushes for my 1949 BSA B31... The seller believed these were of the oilite type so they are self lubricating :) but I'm guessing after all these years they might have lost a bit so had a go at re oiling.

Just a quick test of the pcv operation at idle. Using my home made manometer. Should be able to lift 6" of water .... and it does. Info found on the excellent E31 web resource www.meeknet.co.uk .

I have been having trouble with abs/asc lights staying on after start up. Lights would then go out when car reached approx 5mph. After much head scratching and messing about. The car decided to fix itself.
BMW 97 840CI AC COMPRESSOR CLUTCH
Просмотров 5898 лет назад
My ac wasn't working, I jumped the relay for the compressor clutch....nothing happend. Futher inspection showed why :( Turns out the ac system is completely empty of refrigerant too.
I had a B31 back in the 60s. I never managed to get the push rod tunnel to seal at the top, always had a dribble of oil running down the outside.
@@gerry343 yerrr funny enough that c spanner collar is completely destroyed as well.... Another part to add to the list :)
@@andyfearn6609 I guess they made it that design to allow for the relative expansion of the alloy tunnel and cast iron cylinder.
@@gerry343 good point👍
Fixer up , don't worry about the $ too much , it will be great for the mind when it's all done , I really enjoy riding my 54 b33 , I had lots to fix as well . Cheers
@@Cobra427Veight absolutely... I'll get a kick out of it when finished. Highs N Lows of messing with old vehicles.... I'll grow out of it one day :)
can you not use bearing fit? I am putting a b33/ b34 crank in my b31, it was rebuilt but not by me. the barrel is off and the crank feels ok. will know more when i split the cases
@@PATRICKWOODGER yeah could do. Plenty of products out there for this. Still having a think. Cheers.
@@andyfearn6609 I had a loose bearing on the crank on my a65 firebird. i used loctite bearing fit but had to add a shim behind it. It was so well fixed it took a hell of a lot of heat and persuasion to move it. If it's not that loose it doesn't actually rocks i wouldn't worry, with a new bearing it's not a problem, main thing is the big end is good. I bought a bantam many years ago from him. The v5 didn't match either the frame or engine number and I had paid for delivery and he kept making excuses, took months. Never again
Bad Luck. Am thinking metal spraying for the bearing journal,and that the cam lobes might be repaired by building up with weld [Nickel based rod ?] and ground back Although not mentioning the condition of the cylinder you did say you had plenty of compression.Could the existing piston not be re-used with new rings and honed barrel,?.
@@56REME yeah bit of shame... Just weighing up the options at moment. They are fixable ...but it's how much i invest in getting them repaired (apparently the shafts need separating from flywheel to recut) versus finding a healthier used one. The cylinder could go again with a hone and fresh rings. Im in the tricky spot of drawing the line :)
@@andyfearn6609 Not so sure the shafts would have to be removed,but you would need a lathe with a reasonably large centre height to accomodate the diameter of the flywheel for sure.Thinking too that the faces of the followers will be pretty damaged going by the state of the cams,but to reface [weld/regrind] those would be relatively easy.
@56REME interesting... Luckily the followers have survived and i have found some good used cams... I'll pop a video of the head and cam followers next and keep thinking about the crank. Just glad i didn't carry on running the poor thing.Cheers for advice 👍
Touring cams are a straight fit
@@keesstam909 cheers..will have a search....do you know the bsa part numbers by any chance.
I have gold star touring cams in my B31, works really great
@@keesstam909interesting ....any other modifications required? I was about to buy nos standard cams off the ebay.
Lovely bike!
You loaded E34 not E31
Your right i did... my mistake... funny how it still worked....(i did put an edit for in the description) the only module that my set up didn't read was the cruise control.....
I already ordered I did follow your guide and download the Inpa yesterday but the version was updated and does not support ADS anymore. Do you still have downloaded file of INPA from last year. I have 750IL 1998 would love to be able to fix few issues with INPA ADS Interface support. Would you be able to share it. Regards, Tom
Nice, Where did buy the ads interface and software?
