Oddjob:
Not wishing to take any of Bryans sales away but as these will eventually no longer be available I thought I'd mention it's possible to repair the thing. So long as you can make out where the lug used to be you can file the back of it and just leave that section alone. Eventually you'll have another lug where the old one used to be, it's only a type of Bakolite and is easy to file, thickness doesn't seem to matter as it's the brass/copper contact that does all the work and so long as you leave that alone it's all good. I've repaired a few doing just that.

Thanks guys.
My unit looks ok incl. Lug on the back so will crack on 👍

Morning!

I'm looking to fit the alternator harness, but have a question on the oil pump switch?

I think this is correct, but the elec drwg I think says B/R?

I did reference a photo from the stripdown, but this has the oil switch not connected

Oddjob:
Blue/red is correct for oil pump switch. Very common to see them like that, tended to get trapped when putting the cover back on.

juitz:
Good Saturday to all,

Clutch lever - these are the positions I can move it, but I think it should be able to pivot around both sides of the marking on the case? Couldnt find a relevant section in the manual.
