AMPS out drive.

1970’s out drive for motors up to 20cc

I have a problem with my AMPS out drive. However, I also have a new and unused one. One problem, the old has flat blade screws for the two oiling points. The replacement has Allen screws, and I do not have an Allen key to fit.

Would anyone have an idea ofthe correct size Allen key? This is not mentioned in the instructions.

Robert. Assuming you have a metric set of Allen's, then presumably the screws must be an imperial size?? Having both sets is handy as sometimes a screw head gets worn and the next size up in metric/imperial will be a better fit. It is unlikely they used some really odd size screw.

Do you think that would be a BANDIT size Ashley?

Robert . Not sure I am with you on this one///?? Ashley

Could be one of these be the Alan that you are looking for?

[ashley needhamParticipant @ashleyneedham69188]

Yes, the second from the left might fit….

Ahh… Was using my ipad. Should have checked before sending the post.

Should have read..BA thread.

I live overseas now, so I would appreciate any suggestions as to where I could purchase these keys.

If it's a BA thread – which is highly likely – then it almost certainly requires an Imperial-sized Allen key. If you Google that you'll find plenty of UK suppliers. I'm sure one of them would post a small parcel like that overseas.
