That's what mine does, tips oil straight in the eggsauce, especially if you rotate the engine slowly whilst tipped (don't ask me how I know).
On re-start you will be greeted with a burnt oil cloud visible from space, again don't ask.

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Yeah, bin there, clouds of smoke for quite a while. I thought it was the oil coming out the breather, through the carb, through the engine and into the eggzorst but I can't see the crankcase being directly connected to the exhaust. Strangeness.
Later in the year if I'm bored I'll take this engine to bits 'cos I've not done that before.

Re: and today i have mostly been...
I am so annoyed I can hardly think straight, yesterday my wife's retarded fuckwit neighbours shot George with an air rifle. I bloody heard it too. He's ok but he now contains a pellet. I thought he was bitten but it all became clear once the vet started to trim his hair back:


Just now I'm resisting the urge to go around there with a baseball bat, however I suspect all the plants in their allotment may mysteriously die later in the year.

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Cheers Welly. George seems fine now, like nothing happened really, although I'm steering clear of touching his back. He was even having play punch-ups with Obama in the garden yesterday evening.
Revenge is a dish best served cold.... Although I've told another neighbour that if it happens again I'll be burning their house down (hope that one spreads

Re: and today i have mostly been...
Trying to unblock our internal soilpipe with a cheapo drain snake. After collecting half a Lidl bag of vampires t bags and baby wipes I phoned my good friend for advice.
He suggested rigging up a jet hose. Off I trundled to Tesco (now 9.15pm) to buy a hose etc .. Picked one up with connectors for £6 which I thought was a bargain. Like the toilet hero I thought I was, I raced home with my new equipment, opened the pack and connected it to our outside tap.
No water........,.................
This was because some complete lady garden has disconnected the outside tap but left all the Gubbins screwed to the wall
So... Into the garage, find a torch, fumble around under the sink, discover its a different thread/size than my new adaptor, go back in the front room and drink a lot of Vodka.
Until tomorrow.,...................

*throws rest of Breakfast in the Bin
At Welly Towers the 'T bags' go in Dog Poo Bags and the Bin and we use flushable wipes which are cheap enough and do the same err job, like. Baby wipes vanish down the loo but end up at the treatment works where some poor sod has to shovel them up
Good luck today and please NO PICS
