Hi all following on from the thread by Rubyman and his question about fitting oil baffles or not. It got my small brain thinking. I have run my Ruby for the past 10 years without oil baffles and this seems to have no ill effect. Do other forum member think it maybe down to the newer modern type of piston that has the second oil scraper ring at the bottom of the piston below the gudgen pin. Thus removing more oil from the bores.
I await your replies from people with greater knowledge on auto engines particulary Austin Sevem engines.
