Hi all

Just taken the top of Regulator to bead blast old paint off and obviously looked inside the guts of the Regulator, all looks well and in good condition.

In the bottom is a thin layer of oil, should this be present within the Regulator? Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards

Nic Jackson

It should be clean and dry. The present of oil means the gasket wasn't sealing properly or the engine was operated while the cover of the regulator was removed.

Thanks Wes

Just out of interest what is the plug P/N 444614 ( TM 9-2320-208-34P) for in the lower body portion of the regulator?

Regards
