Re: Motorcycle Oil
Motorcycles and Model T transmissions typically run at 200F+ oil temperatures and both run their engine oil through gears. Google: "shear" "viscosity-index improvers" "causes for oil viscosity reduction" you will come to better understand why some people tout the benefits of running a motorcycle oil...

Re: Triple gear bushing failures
If these are sintered bronze, they would not be the first that I've seen used in triple gears. And, if I am not mistaken, these were sold as the correct bushing by at least one supplier in the past.
They would be a poor choice indeed.

Re: Triple gear bushing failures
Appear to be Oilite - sintered bronze
sintered bronze, an engineered material, is not ductile and will fracture easily under the right conditions and is not engineered to take a severe load
cast bronze is ductile and will not fracture easily and is well suited to a pounding or severe load duty

in 2017, greehouse gas production in the US, per capita had dropped to the lowest level since 1964. Additionally, this also puts the US at 72% of our all time high (1972) output and as a bonus, at a constant downward path since 2000. As of 2017, and using the span from 1972 to 2017 to be a fair comp...

I can clearly see in your picture that you have NOT broken the drive tang off, thus the bolt will simply screw the helicoil out. Every time. Helicoils are larger than the hole and expand tightly into them. They are used in through-holes in industry everywhere. After installing ANOTHER helicoil, with...

Hopefully, you'll find a kind benefactor. Given that 25% of it's price is just the material cost alone, for the remaining $ return, I wouldn't fire up a lathe for the work and time involved. The list price is a bargain. Hope your search is not a long one.

Re: Truefire timing issue?
I should have been more clear as to what to look for: note how far ccw the timer housing is. It just lifts off when the bolt is loosened and the tension "finger" is released. I cannot fathom why it will not rotate fully for you but you may come to a better understanding soon.
