    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Small Project for someone with Access to a lathe (Copper)

I have drawings for a conversion washer I've come up with to convert 10mm Banjo brake lines to fit the 8mm engine block fitting on the 83 750.

I am not 100% sure what other models have these 2 oil lines joining block to head but I think there are some others.

It's basically drilling a centre hole & turning a shoulder on some 1/2" copper bar. Easy if you have a lathe... I could do the work myself but I don't!

Anyone here want to have a go at it? I can likely get hold of some copper if necessary.

Too small volume for my lot plus I'm way out of favours at the moment....
 
Hey Dan, doesn't Ed do that kind of stuff too?


All the best to you and yours,

Cliff
 
How many pieces do you need? I could find the time to do a few, but not a whole bunch.

Unless of course my location is a problem.
 
Personally I need 4 of them.... But I think there are others who prob have the same issues with the leaking pipes.
It's just a fancy crush washer basically hence the copper. I can supply a CAD file dwg or dxf.
 
Think you will find a bit of demand for these from the 83+ 750/700 crowd.I'm kind of interested myself so I will watching to see how it turns out.
