Stefan,

A better copy is on it's way to me and I send you a better copy of it when I receive it.

Hi Stefan, I found this:- service buliten show oil mist path.jpg It shows the path of the oil mist up to the top one way valve and into the carb. It also show oil mist going to the lower oneway valve and tuning back in to oil which then joins the oil returning from the rocker box cover. There is NO ...

The design to blow overpressure slightly oily air from the crankcase through the flapper valve and into the the air intake of the carburetor is part of the anti pollution system instituted by most engine emanufacturers. Even modern cars have this system, but they also have catalytic converters to fu...

I came across this post:-

I know nothing about this "Haflinger" other than what is in the post. Contact the seller directly.

One of the manuals states that the Haflinger can tow 350kg so maybe that can be used?

Depends on how good the rust protection stuff is. Yes, you could clean them with brake cleaner or petrol and then leave them soaking in a container of oil or fill them up with grease and put them in a plastic bag to wait until you are ready to fit them, That way they already have grease and all you ...

You don't seem to be having much luck with finding the issue. Is the Axle sleeve bent? Can you get the gears setup in a lathe to see if they have "off centre" holes?

Shock absorber being different could have an effect on the tyre. The original shock absorber has damping on both the up and down stroke, if the trailer one only has damping on the up stroke, then the tyre will come down harder than if there was damping on the down stroke, that has the effect on the ...

The outside edge of the tyre looks more worn than the rest, this is usually caused by too much toe in. I.E. the wheel is vertical when the vehicle is travelling with normal weight in it. The fact that it is only one wheel that is doing it means that the issue must be to do with just that wheel. Chec...

Why don't you just use the unleaded fuel and if you notice that you are having to adjust the valve gaps more often or that the amount you are having to adjust is getting bigger each time. Then you can take the heads off and get HARDENED valve seat put in. A good automotive engineering shop that can ...

Those square "Stones" do actually fit, but they are really difficult to fit if you have the weight of the axle and hub to hold as well! As stated - they will drive you mad! Fit he drive shaft first, then add the axle housing. If you are worried that your axle is bent - check it against a f...

Well done for finding the cause and for telling us what was wrong and how you fixed it. Maybe easier for someone else when they have teh same problem.

Broken piston rings can happen if the little peg in the piston comes loose. Some damage to the valves, dropping something it to the bore and it gets struck on the side of the piston. The barrel "could" be salvaged, but it will always be a problem waiting to happen. Lots of work to weld a n...

Use a liquid to remove the rust - even something like Coke a Cola. Soak for few days, wash clean and then soak in a rust converter to turn what remaining rust in to Iron Phosphate so they don't rust any more.

Thank you for the reply and the offer Michel, it's a shame, but it looks like a new tank is out of my reach. So I am going to have to have my old rusty one repaired.

Regards,

John

I might need a series II petrol tank as well, the one that is under the front left seat. Any one know how much they are? If it is in Europe, would also need shipping to the UK.

Many thanks,

John

Drain the brake system completely. Use compressed air to blow through each and every pipe including the master cylinder and wheel cylinders. Putting air in the bottom of the master cylinder without the circlip in should make the whole piston and spring unit come out. Putting air in the wheel cylinde...

Take off the belts by undoing the Nut. Make note of how many shims are between each section of the pulley as you take it off. Check how well the fan spins without the belts. Wobble it to see if the bearings are damaged. See if the fan actually fits in the cowl properly. Is the cowl Oval? Is the fan ...
