David,
Thanks mate - yep that's my plan as well, try the oil bath (splash feed) and
then look at pressure feed.
I didn't think the Oil metering pump would give sufficient oil, unless Don
is looking at dribble feed.
***** There were two different approaches discussed here:
1. Use the metering pump just as a circulation pump thru a small cooler, but still using splash feed. ( splash lube is OK for gearboxes, remember that 99% of car manual gearboxes use splash lube), and,
2, Use the metering pump pad/drive, to run a small pressure pump to spray lube and circulate oil thru a small cooler.
Both could be unnecessary, and just add to complication, weight, and another point of failure . As someone said, "solving a problem we don't have"
FWIW, Dave McC
