We are back, I  have done the rear fender, tail light and did few things I had to redo by missing spares ...

The space is tight on the chain side for brake, chain cover, chain, Shock Absorbers ...

Next job: set up the alignment seat/ tank/ frame.

News: I bought a OKO carburetor (they are affordable). 

I a still working in my gas tank, inside liner will be done this week (ready for the last phase).

I have the paint for outside, the tank is 90% ready.

I have  a question: do you have a reserve position in fuel valve  ?

Fly wheel is removed, no real corrosion. Electronic ignition is schedule with 12 DC for the light and accessories.

Some fuel taps have a reserve position. Some don't. I couldn't see your fuel tap to know. If you've got the original fuel tap it would be a good idea to use a new (modern) tap instead to get a more reliable flow stream.

When you do the liner, take care to avoid letting liner harden in the threaded hole for the tap. On a couple of the Spanish fibreglass tanks I've lined, the thread required cleaning out of liner and for that I used a thread cutting tap when the liner was solid but not fully set.

Gas cap: I will need a new clean gas cap, they seems so expensive 😪.

Do you have a store to go ? 

Thanks

What's wrong with yours? There's not much to them.

Anyway if you want a new one, In Motion has push-in type Bultaco caps list price 24 british pounds.

If you can bear having the wrong logo on it, the Montesa Cota 348 push-in cap will fit your tank.

A friend uses a rubber foot from a tubular framed bar stool as a cap for his tank.
