Hi all I have a 'Series C' Comet that is a real 'Smokey Joe' I have found that if I drain the crankcase then start up the bike at first the smoke clears .... but returns after 1 minute's running. Then when I stop the engine and drain the crankcase, I remove around 1/4 pint of oil. I have removed the return oil pipe from the crankcase and blown through it .... it is clear all the way to the oil tank. I suspect the oil pump before I start to strip does anyone have other ideas or suggestions as to why? many thanks in advance. Also is it easy-ish to strip/gain access to the oil pump as I have not done a pump removal/assemble before?
I have removed the pump all seems well, the only thing I have found is that the slotted screw peg is worn it has 2 flats on it .... I have ordered a new one lets hope that sorts it ..... fingers crossed.
