2v's have a milled plate that covers the flap valves and feed into a tank between the engine plates with a drain cock at the back



If you need better photos let me know

I've got one for a JAP, Jim. Don't think it would fit your Jawa. I'll dig it out and have a look

Kevin Mc Donald and Titman used to sell them years back, (who sells speedway stuff in Oz now?)

i bought one for my Weslake and used a bit of hose up to a plastic bottle between the engine plates above the countershaft. i mounted the plastic bottle with rubber straps so i could release it easy to dump the oil.

there is a bloke in England who makes them but has told me they wont fit grasstrack bikes with a gearbox. he makes the plate that sits under the engine with a spigot like hoony says. if a put a bottle on top of the gearbox will the oil go up into the bottle 5 inches above the outlet point on the bottom of the engine
alan the jap one wont fit

[Hoony]

the oil entry to my bottle was a good 10 inches above the outlet spigot, crankcase vet pressure seemed to push the oil no problem on my Wessie so reckon you should be ok.

Thanks will sort it out now

Does anyone have a contact for the gentleman in the UK who manufactures the plates for the outlet spigot. Need one for a JAP and my Wessie. Haven't seen his advert on ebay for quite a while.
