Does anyone have specs on what the oil pump should be set on for a 2001 SRX 700. Just put a used motor in - ran it up and down the field a few times and the plugs look to be somewhat grey and very dry. I am currently burning Amsoil interceptor oil. (not sure if that makes a difference)

Thanks Daman! the motor has 8000 mi on it - I would rather be safe than sorry. I am also going to start burning Yamalube again. (Only because i have a bunch left over)

So 20 mm would be adding more oil to the fuel? This sled has been a nightmare ...At this point I would rather be safe than sorry.
Never buy a sled with bender racing stickers all over it and no clue what mods have been done to it!

just remember you can be sorry from too much oil too. too much oil = fuel lean
and thats not good either

IMO:
Check your jetting + ensure those carbs are clean.
On plugs...grey is never a good colour and usually is an indication of an overly lean fuel mixture condition.
