Have a 97 600sx. Never was very good on gas or oil but my last ride was crazy. 40 miles 10 gal fuel and the oil light came on. The oil tank was full before I started ride. The sled ran rough a mid rpm (3k to 6k) top end was fine. So I used 3/4 tank of oil and 10 gal gas in 40 miles. Carbs are ok, floats etc. check out good. So from reading around here I find that the early SX machines had bad oil pumps, would go full tilt. So I called the Yami dealer, $350 or so for a oil pump?? wow. Any ideas where to find an oil pump that is reasonable. Thanks for the help.

Try readjusting it first for the heck of it may help.adjust it 2mm from mark to mark.
1st- set idle to 16- 1,7000 rpm's(@ operating temp)
2nd- set throttle end play to 2mm(adjustment for that is here )
3rd- set oil pump,,with engine off hold throttle wide open and look down
at the oil pump make sure alinment marks are lined up,OR just before
lining up(2mm)(for less oil),your adjustment for the oil cable is here in this adjusting joint,pull back rubber sheave's and 1# is the lock nut 2# is your adjusting ring,turn 2# in or out when set lock nut 1# then replace rubber sheave's half's
4th-then set choke free play so you have at least 1.5mm of play in the
cable,that is measured similar to the oil cable,find the joint for the choke
and pull the outer tube of the cable up and measure the gap..
