Yep an alum plug with a hex hole on the bottom more or less in line with the crankshaft center line .....don't need to remove the plug to adjust.... just get the right sized flat blade screwdriver to fit through the hex and turn the adjustment screw within...screw in = less oil...out = more oil...

I think you need to loosen the plug to adjust...if the plug is tight against the oiler.

I'll try it at lunch. Got it warming on my bench.You only need to remove the plug to pull the oiler assembly out. But it seem like I remember that if the plug is screwed tight, you can't adjust the olier through it.....might be wrong though. In any event, stick a small flat-heat through the plug and try to turn the oiler screw head. If that doesn't work then loosen the plug. As Robin said; IN to reduce oil flow, OUT to increase. There's a point though, that when turning OUT is excessive and you've gone too far.
We'll see how much good there is!!!....when it arrives....LOLOL!!!!!Good luck with your new toy Lad.
Well...My fellow Jonsergeeks.....picked this up off ebay last night......nice clean unit.....nice paint and plastic.....however the wrap handle has a "custom bend"...LOL!! What piqued my interest was the top mounted decomp....another "custom" improvement...I don't think they ever came with a factory decomp....anyone ever see one?? Add says it turns over very hard.....probably scored beyond....maybe crank bearings....or both who knows. I'm pretty sure I have everything in stock to make into whatever iteration I want it to be.....even stock... so no worries there. Just very hard to find any of this family in this good shape. Of course time will tell if I made a big mistake or a decent deal.

Lol...I admire you skepticism. Like mine, it's well-earned from past adventures in buying. It's not old enough for me, so I can't contribute to what it has versus what it should have. Yeah on the 'turns over very hard' part....could be all the bad rather than good compression. But who knows...like unwrapping a Xmas package! Let us know what you really got when it arrives.opcorn:
Decent price for ebay though....
