01 srx, on the oil pump theres two little hoses (they have springs on them and hook up to a y) they hook up to 90degrees nipples that look to pressed in the oil pump, i just put back the motor in the sled and was about to put back the carbs guess what, one of the little nipple is broken off, are they pressed in the oil pump? i have acces to a pump off an sx so i could replace the nipple in place (i hope) But i want to make sure they are pressed in or threaded in there before i tamper on it, anybody ever had this happen to them? what did you do? thanks!

edit: i just checked the parts catalog and the sx pump aint the same at all and i dont see these fittings on there, i will have to source an srx pump, but my question remains, are they removable and how!

No, first time for everything...if you have another pump available, then experiment with it...try pulling it off or threading it off...you'll have your answer...let us know what worked for you...cheers

well it turned up to be pressed fit in the pump, found another one, took if and just pressed it back int!
 
Good to hear that...did you put on some type of locking agent, like loctite or yamie bond to help seal & hold into place...
