Hi all,
I have a '70 Commando with the central oil tank. The return feed banjo that is currently on it has an allen set screw in the hole where the chain oiler once fed, from and the whole area shows signs of being covered in solder as well as oil. I am about to replace it with another banjo that currently has the small chain oiler tube intact, and was just wondering the best method for plugging it, and hopefully cleanest looking. I have seen photos of small rubber hose attached and then a screw plugged in the end, and heard mention of snipping it off and filling with solder. My first thought is to snip it, heat it with a torch and fill the hole with solder.
