Title: A50 oil pipe union
Post by: Greenfield on 13 Sep, 2018, 13:57
There are three pipes on the oil union on my '68/'69 A50, one short one which I think connects to the rocker feed and two long metal pipes. Can someone tell me which receives oil from the tank and which is the return? :-\

Hi,
     The attachment should help.

It's the arrangement before the direct feed to the rockers from the oil manifold (short pipe)but the feed and return are the same, note the cross over.

Best wishes...

Thanks for that. It was the pipe crossover that I was querying. Sorted.
