bungs on back of 1071 blocks

Post by SteveG »

Mine has 2. 1 is above the water bung.

Is this a 1071 thing as my friends 1275 S block does not have this.

Cheers

One is to drain the water out of the block .

The other one is to prime the oil pump , this was deleted soon after the thick flange block was introduced .
