Ciao DC, great videos, what are the engineering options available if the oil pump wear is in the housing. I have looked at a coupe of AJS 18, with poor oil scavenging and believe this is a common problem due to pump housing wear, any advice would be truly appreciated, Lisa

The information in this video is quite wrong. The A.M.C. factory Workshop Instruction Manual gives the following information: "To decide if the bearing tube or the bushes are worn, the spindle diameter is .9995"/.9990, the bush diameter in situ is 1.001". At the factory a pilot reamer 1" diameter is used for these two bushes, for correct alignment." and "The two flanged bushes are housed in steel sleeves which are not supplied separately." Some side street manufacturers made replica tubes (or spindles) with diameter 1.000" and these spindles are of course useless. Preben, Denmark.

I think, anno 2023 , the way to go is using a digital caliper.......set the caliper at 2 inches or so, have the piston push up the measring rod of the caliper, set it to zero, then push out to 7/16 inch for 39 degrees.....turn the crankshaft and wait till the piston touches the measuring rod again at 7/16 in compression stroke....

Freeing up the clutch as described is always a good idea. Then get the piston just past TDC on the compression stroke. Now swing the kickstart (don't jab at it) to get the flywheels moving. The flywheels will do all the work, and that's it! If you are going to bump start it first roll the bike back against compression, again so that the flywheels can do theit work.
