Hi Rob, I wonder if the attachment was sewn to a full gasket. This one appears to have been all the way around. Maybe stitching tabs or the like, inside the bounds of the hole (to a flat rectangle of canvas) enabled the fitting of a cover?

Hi Stephen. I have not seen that one before. My AOP MkIIIw had the remains of a steel box type seal at the div plate that projected forward behind the seat in a similar fashion. it was probably only about 40mm deep with a rubber? seal that the two rods passed through. The problem is that the rods shift laterally as the cam plate rotates.
This one Rob talks of goes around the cross tube and cam plate. Thank you Stephen, for adding your photo to this thread

I also have the remains of a metal box that went under the seat. It prevented debris from reaching the cam plate thru the opining that the two steering cam rods went through. If I run into the remnants of my cam cover, I'll snap a photo. I am heading back into the shop right now to spend the day cleaning...perhaps it will show up. |

Reviving an old thread. Here are a couple of original fuel lines for the interest of the purist nut jobs.
With one of them being 1/40 dated, these will be British origin.

Well no matter what I do, they come through top side down.
Here are a couple of the radiator mount. The rubber block is nominally 1 inch wide and tapers from the front 47mm high to 40mm high at the back. The hole through the middle accepts the 3/8" dia bolt. I believe (from Michael R) that there was a mod to hold the bolts at the bottom.

Hopefully someone can flip my pictures.
Next for this visit is the fibre coupling (drive) for the generator. (shown with the armature dog)

And another of the fuel cap seal to better show it was leather.

Thanks for sharing the information included the rubber blocks for the radiatormount.
This will helps me to make new rubber blocks for my carrier. |
