[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 174427, member: 60"] I think the ET100 'mod' has past its 50 year point and can now I think be regarded as the standard. In fact looking at Vincent Spares ET100/1 (the VS designation which includes the nut ) along with ET26/1 (if buying new) are the only items on offer. Its been many a summer since I saw a metering wire they are from the days of when Vincents were actually ridden every day and oil changes were infrequent and oil was poor. I always use cap screws for the oil joint and anneal the copper washer its not unusual to find a concave face on the top of an oil union a fancy screw or gasket wont cure that. [/QUOTE]
