Saturday morning was dedicated to trying to get Roadcats XT500 to start. I was replacing an oil seal on the oil feeder pipe when I dropped a cap-screw off of the end of an allen key, it bounced on the frame an flew straight down the oil breather tube!!!!!
WHAT ARE THE CHANCES???? ??? :eek7:
I can see the very edge of the cap-screw, so there is hope and I don't have to remove the motor and split the casing just yet..... HOLD THUMBS!! :mwink:
Anyway, i now need to try and get that out - no magnetic pick-ups available from the local spares/hardware shops, so I will find one this week.....
The purple is the flight path - the red is the target aquired...... :biggrin:
Oh - and I went and bought a lotto ticket too...... You never know :thumleft:
