[SEL] Fairbanks Morse Dishpan Oiling Questions

[Dave Otto]

Hi Francis

I'll take a stab at this from memory. The oil goes in the Rectangular hole,
it runs down a little trough and onto the cam follower and the cam. I'm
really not sure about the governor. I went out and looked at the pot metal
bracket for my Fairbanks 1.5hp and there is no way to lube the governor
other than just give it a shot with an oil can. The 3hp engines and probably
the 6's have a grease cup for the governor shaft.

Hope this helps,

Dave

Hi List,
On my newly acquired Fairbanks Morse dishpan engine, located below  the 
magneto, cast into the assembly is the word  - "Oil".   The question that I
have is 
where does the oil go -  Rectangular, small or large round hole?   How is
the 
governor weight  assembly oiled?
