Bingster Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Well, got the starter rebuilt and am ready to attempt to start Carlo. Contrary to the manual's advice, the starter will not clear the oil filter tubing and thus the starter cannot be lifted out from above without hitting the tubing. Somebody attached the filter onto a head bolt, and after playing around trying to take the bolt out I thought better of it until I remove the head some day. But I have a question about the filter tubing connections. They are flare fittings, and when I removed the tubing from the oil pressure gauge line and the filter oil intake, I noticed that the holes inside the brass fittings were very small, and I was wondering if the flare fitting could block the holes and prevent oil from passing through them.
