should there be an hole ( oilway), in the crankpin, where the rollers run;
I can see where the oil goes in but not where it would come out !
I suspect mine is full of roller debris and sludge but i cannot find it to clear it and I don't want to take a file to it !
I have a brandnew polished conrod (£45 from an autojumble), and rollers and cage (from the club - Peter kemp; prince among men).. i just need to clean everything up

Re: big end oil ways
This crankpin is for the bin, even regrinding and larger rollers won't bring you far.
