Which oil hole are you referring to? The small end has oil holes, but requires splash to get oil in there, I have heard of some that have a hole drilled through the centre so oil is fed from the big end?? Is that what you mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had excessive wear on my bearings in the original motor but may have been due to them not fitting the oil ring correctly and contaminating the oil it was only 3500km old Edited 13/02/15 11:14 PM by RIP85 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The oil is fed through the crank to the big end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
