Oiler orientation 140-160 1974

Remove the oiler and clean thoroughly with carb cleaner. You'll be able to see cleaner squirt out the pinhole and know it's open.

It goes so the outboard edge -- the one with the short overhang relative to the tube -- is parallel to the edge of the timing cover. The long overhang side points in the 3:30 - 4:00 position. That aims the pinhole right at the junction of the gears. It's not super critical.
