Where is the oil bleeding screw on the 700s?

Isnt that the doo hickey on back of engine between carbs for center and pto cylinders?

Follow the oil cable down, between the Center & Mag carbs, it should be a 10mm bolt on top of the oil pump. It's best to remove the carbs you'll get a good look at it that way.

here is the diagram of the pump..Line #15 and the bleed bolt is #19 on top..

Blue, is that a Viper or SRX pump? 'Cause the pump on a Redhead (SX or SXR) has the bleeder bolt right on the pump.

 

[bluemonster1]

it is the same for my 01 SXR and 02 SRX.Both bleed on the top part.I just open the screw a bit and the oil will flow out.

Hmm... The pump on my redhead doesn't look like that at all. ANyways it's either on that line in the Diagram Blue posted or it is right down on the pump itself. It would be a bolt that points up....

I would say it would be pretty hard to drain from down below.With the top bleeder you don't have to take carbs out.

 

[bluemonster1]

is this your pump on the SX.Looks like #2 is the bleeder down below.You can just get the extension line to bring it up higher then

 

[sleddineinar]

Yea that what the SX looks like. I'd have posted that picture myself but couldn't figure out how to post it from a microfiche.
