I use the lower port for my true hobbs meter switch Bob
Haas, Lighting.

Subject: Lightning-List: Oil circuit?
I=99ll have a go:
Sump
Pump
Sender (original position)
Filter port out of crankcase, this is the OCA inlet, Relief valve
(bouncing control valve for most engines, flows back to sump) This is
from area under OCA or filter if OCA isn=99t fitted.
If OCA or TOCA fitted through cooler. With early OCA (drilled bypass)
and TOCA some (or all in case of TOCA) bypasses cooler.
>From cooler or toca bypass into filter (outside)
next out of filter (centre) to feed oil gallery
Sender (new position) is on end of gallery
The gallery runs the length of the engine and taps off through multiple
channels to feed up to mains and prop bearing, from there big ends,
small ends, pistons
Off the gallery is also tapped the feed to the rockers on those engines,
this runs through a transverse pipe and drips onto the valve springs
(outlet above each spring) and from there into bottom of rocker boxes
where it runs down push rod tubes back into sump (this was an area of
much discussion during the mid noughties).
And off the gallery is the multiple feed down to the hydraulic lifters
which we are learning so much about. From rod (socket) end of lifter it
either drips away to sump (better with slotted end to rod) or feeds the:
hollow rods up into rockers to rocker shaft (nothing to valve guides
apart from mist).
All over the moving parts any lost oil will return to the sump.
There you go, there is a good drawing in the later manuals, side view of
crankcase. I suppose a schematic could be drawn.
What did I miss?

Subject: RE: [jabiruengines] Re: Ticking noise at start-up. Any ideas?
This question may be off topic a bit but I will ask it anyway. Much has
been discussed about the =98best=99 oil pressure sender
position.
Question: Can someone please explain to me the path taken by the oil
from the sump, returning back to the sump, with key passage points
en-route, such as sender, oil filter, oil cooler, rocker chambers, etc,
etc.? That will help me get a better understanding of where the high and
low pressure areas are.

Bernardo,
I moved my oil pressure sender off the engine entirely so it will not
wear out with engine vibration. I plugged up the hole where the sender
is "normally" located. I feed my sender via a line from the hole just
below the "normal" hole. The hole provides pressure information AFTER
the filter and the oil cooler.
There have been quite a few posts about this on the forum.

Yes Mike: I believe there are several with the tow bar attach fittings. I
got mine from Bogert Aviation. I drilled and tapped the front wheel yoke for
the pins, then drilled the wheel pant in order to accept the tow bar.
