Big John, Many thanks for that. Marty

Hi All, I have been told that I should use Automatic Transmission Fluid in the clutch side of the engine on my 78 Sherpa 250 - is this correct and if so any recomendations on make, type and quantity. Cheers Marty

Thanks guys for the advice. What about clutch oil - I have heard that Automatic Transmission Fluid is the stuff to use. What kind, quantity etc whats your advice on this. Cheers Marty

Woody, Just the info I was after - many thanks Marty

Hi all, Could anyone tell me should there be some sort of seal/rubber betwwen the rear exhaust section and the middle silencer on a 78 Sherpa. If not what stops gasses leaking from that joint. My bike leaks from there but because I am out of country I havent had a chance to strip it yet. It would be handy to know so I can order parts ready for when i get home. Cheers Marty

Twinshockdude, Many thanks for your reply. I have lots of questions I need to ask regarding this bike but I wont bother you just yet with them. Just one more if I may, what is the best way to clean out the exhaust system as I believe it will be full of oily goo - hence previous question. Thanks again, Marty

Hi to all, Just recently acquired a Bultaco 250 1978 198 and to be honest I dont have a great deal of experience or knowledge of the bike. Hopefully with time this will improve. My question is a simple one really, could some one give me the fuel/2 stroke oil ratio that I should be running with this bike. I have read 20:1 in an old manual, is this correct? Please forgive such a simple question. Many thanks. Marty Dunn
