The sump plug solution would only work if you are using a 2cv chassis, as the scrape marks on the plug on my Pembleton testify!

Howard,
The extra senders tuck away neatly on my car, using a standard adaptor flange.
The three senders are oil pressure, supplementary 30psi oil pressure warning light (to warn you before it is too late!) and temp sender.

I also have the latest Burton finned rocker boxes, these lowered oil temp by 10 degree C in any given conditions, I think I now have enough headway for a 650cc kit.

Yes, you have to watch for over cooling, hence the smaller filter in winter, I also cover the oil cooler with tank/duct tape in the winter and only remove once longer summer trips arrive, this year tape I took tape off in June!

Dave, I have both the larger oil filter & a oil temperature gauge. I drilled & tapped the 2cv oil filter housing out to 3/4" unf & hade a stub by drilling a length of 3/4" unf threaded rod. Then you can use a readily available (inexpensive) oil filter sandwich gauge adaptor for this thread and have ...

Peter,
I bought the flexible oil pipes for my Pembleton from Der Franzose.
They still supply to the UK post Brexit, but with a £15 delivery charge.

On Pembleton Super Sports the Citroen rear crossmember was shortened, rather than the arm extended.
I have not heard of any arm failures on Pembletons.

Dave, My 602cc Pembleton runs well on E5 (with larger than standard jets). When I have run low & only been able to get E10 performance is down & car is noticeably noisier. The new, correctly marked, flexible fuel pipes fitted for the MSVA rotted on E5 and had to be replaced with Ethanol proof hoses....

How about cutting a hole in top of tank and fitting a screw fitting from inside the tank using gauge sender hole for access?
