Triumph Tiger Cub Crankcase Oil Capacity
I use a Miller oil tank on both Cubs I did not use the plastic pipe to feed the engine but rubber oil hose to feed it as I cut the plastic pipe the wrong length on the first engine But when doing the second one used the plastic hose Like you it leaked at the gearbox where it fits on to the copper pipes So the was fitted with rubber pipe also The plastic pipe is a loose fit on the mettle pipe even with hose clip tight

PVL & chaincase fitting problem
Did a little research which type do you have There is new one that uses the crank case bolts or are you using the studs that the old stator was mounted on Really without seeing the problem it is not easy to say what is wrong The stator mountings no matter the type are a tight fit But if your is on the outer case it should fit Unless it sitting to high Unfortunately both bike and spare engine are away on lone so cannot take measurements for now
-
PVL & chaincase fitting problem
That is the first problem How are going to time it Because the rotor is not keyed on the shaft I did my first engine using the contacts in the distributor To get it to run But I used Electrix world on that engine The later engine I built I had the posts fitted You can adjust the time easier

175 convention bultaco
They are not in the same pedigree as the TY 175 The heavy fly wheel do not fit the drive side (the seal carrier stops this) but and it will not pick up as quickly A 250 /325 motor may fit but I am not sure as the frame is different on the front down tube It curves just behind the head stock
-
175 convention bultaco
Nice bike It would be a pity to spoil it The 175 motor and 250 motors look the same but have suttle difference In the ignition fly wheel is lighter Crank balance and gearing I bought one new and still have it The carb may also not be the same Mine is as it left the factory Have not had the head off yet and runs better than my pal's 250 Yes have to rev it more I also use a larger twin air filter as when new found dirt behind the one behind that panel Maybe mine breaths better!

triumph tiger cub
A side points engine Cam shaft differs from the older engine in that the outer bush is larger If the engine is the double roller type ( not the bush timing side main bearing )The distributor/oil pump / cam drive are separate gears on the crankshaft held on with a nut The older type are one piece held on with a bolt I think the cam shaft gear are the same but I would need to check

triger cub swingarm clearence
I know there is not a lot of clearance between the tyre and chain on bike that is in use but the swinging arm is of unknown origin I bought another hub and found it to be wider than the one in use Have just been the workshop where the other frame has an SM Produce rear an fitted the unbuilt hub brake plate and the spaced sprocket misses the frame and shock My engine is mounted as they can and I use a dished type gear box sprocket
