Bamford Oil Problem
Hello all
i took my bamford tulip top to a rally saturday. what made me worry is that it didnt throw any oil out from the back of the liner. is this ok or is something wrong. and before someone asks yes the oiler was on and it used a whole oiler full.

Re: Bamford Oil Problem
the piston is black with oil. i ran the engine 2 weeks ago at another rally and it was fine it couldnt come out the drain fast enough, this weekend nothing though. could it have been burning it off.
