  13. that "stopper" seals the oil within the rocker arm shaft, it seals when the points cover is put on properly
  14. done that,its soda crystals with an annode of stainless steel. you hook up a car battery charger and depending how immersed the annode is the more current flows. the part is either made positive or neg, (can't remember which) cleans off the rust really good
  15. first you need a 10mm box spanner and a philips screwdriver. the locknut on the clutch adjuster needs to be undone with the box spanner then the screwdriver can be fed through the box spanner and turned clockwise till it lightly stops, then back it off 1/4 turn. holding the screwdriver still, tighten the box spanner/lock nut up, done at the clutch lever there should be 3 - 5mm "slack" in the cable drewps
