mark wha size socket would you need in mm....
46mm is the closest assuming the chart I have is accurate
I know it's 1 11/16" (1.688")
See the chart here
Hi Lou,
Sorry I didn't see your post.
It measures out to being 42 and a bit mm if I remember correctly. Drifter is most likely correct about the 46 being closest metric size.
The 1 11/16" is not a tight fit, you could get away with rounding down to the nearest metric size.
Like you said, 42mm would probably be the best bet. I doubt you'll have much trouble getting a socket in that size.
42 is too small......... :(

Must be very close though. 1 11/16" converts to 42.8mm (or so) and I know for a fact that 1 11/16" fits the nut fairly loose.
That's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen....
Hey Johnno,
Thanks for that:) Its the sort of comment that makes me want to get back into it.
Then again, it could be because I broke the County that i'm pushing ahead with Dirty Mary (the Black Maria) :coplight:
Yesterday I torqued up the head, this evening i've fitted the manifolds, oil pressure and temp senders and carby. I'm about to get stuck into the radiator. All going well I should be able to get some oil, water, fuel and spark into her and wake the neighbours tomorrow.
Oops, is that the time, better get back into it!
SHE RUNS:MileStone:
:banana::banana::banana:
Been a while since the old girl has spluttered into life. Today she's a runner.:cool:
Couple of problems with tappets, had to swap some push rods around as the original order didn't suit the new valves...Then forgot to connect all the spark plug leads up so was running on two cylinders till I realised :bangin:
Running a little rich at the moment, probably needs a timing adjustment too.
Need to fix the throttle linkage too before I can get her in motion. Tonight before I get on the drinkies :angel:
Tomorrow, i'll attack the electrical problem and probably rewire half of it along the way.
:arms:
Sooooo Exciting
