[QUOTE="Big Sid, post: 38825, member: 2781"] Sid again . My comeback not aimed at you Rip , just pointing out the jiggle wire as a clever , novel and effective way they reduced the oil flow without redesign expense . Certainly guide seals are better at this job where the lower guide is worn , but they felt that the oil level in the head was too high . This fault alleviated also by improving the run off towards the pushrod tube as oil tended to pool around the upper end of the guide . Done this to many motors myself and its nearly as effective as guide seals . [/QUOTE]
