Bob, I'm going to go over all my saved pictures and literature but I believe that although you are right about the engine having a pump it isn't a very good one as all it is designed to do is lift the oil up into the valve chamber so it can run to the tappets and back down to the main bearings and rod bearings by gravity and it doesn't really create pressure like a modern engine.

thanks howard; I think you are correct. Just strange to not have one. I tried to access my messages but do not have a pin yet until I get my magazine. I did find a wheel but may be interested in another if you can spare one.
