hey guys I'm glad to see you got it working, i had a problem with mine, someone replaced the throttle for a single cable throttle, and i needed a double cable throttle so i tucked my oil cable behind my throttle and was running too much oil until i found out how to set it up to run properly, I'm with "mtnmax" and "no1chevyboy" about the adjustments being at WOT... i was wondering seeing how you guys are all really smart are any of you good with clutches? I'm having a bit of problems on top end, not sure if I'm aloud to do this but please take a look at my post also... http://www.totallyamaha.net/forums/showthread.php?p=458083#post458083

When you bleed the oil pump, did you remove the screw plug, I think it was #2 in the diagram, or just remove the hose? I have not ever had a problem getting a pump to start. I really hope it works out. Keep running the premix until you are sure it is pumping properly. Al

yes I removed the screw..... the oil bulged up and slowly trickled down the side of the oil pump, never had any air bubbles come out.
is there an in line filter inside the oil tank???? or any filter in the oil tank for that matter????

no and nothstorms said:is there an in line filter inside the oil tank???? or any filter in the oil tank for that matter????
so my question is still lurking....... if the WOT mark doesnt line up and is actually past where it should be will it dump more oil, or is the WOT alignment the max the oil pump can produce???????

hay storms look at the bottom of your oil tank and find the oil line and follow it. mine is a 96 and there is a inline strainer before the pump, it goes big line from the tank to the filter and smaller line from filter to the pump.
97 dont have one on them.

actually you want it 2mm before the lines line up because usally they over oil at fact specs.
