classic225 Posted July 3, 2021 Report Share Posted July 3, 2021 Hi, Mentioned here a couple of weeks ago that my distributor seized up. Was finally able to get the shaft out of the bronze bushing, whilst doing so a number of little bonze pieces fell out. It appears that the top 1/2" of the bushing totally came to pieces. Don't know why this happened but lack of lubrication ( my bad) might be the reason. Yves Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted July 3, 2021 Report Share Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) I think the bronze bush you refer to is a sintered bushing, so will break up as you described. https://www.oilitebushes.com/sintered-bronze-bushes.html Have you got a replacement fitted and working?
