that #2 pump lobe.....
that has been a question here from the begining....
I think the thinking is that the splash or spray, through a hole in the block,
would be enough to provide lubrication for the roller/lobe.
I opened the hole in the block a little. It has been a while and I am unable to
remember if I added another hole or not.
The thing I did do was to add a "flag" to the bolt in the block that is provided
for "pre oiling" the #2 lobe. I think the thinking is that any splash would gather
on the "flag" and drip onto the lobe.
I took the plug/bolt, drilled a hole in the inside end and JB welded a 1/16 ×
about 3" brass rod in the end.
I haven't run mine enough to say if it is a viable option or not. I don't see how
it could hurt.
