Noticed a couple air bubbles in the oil line after the oil pump before it reaches the mag side. Is there any concern with this? What needs to be done to fix it?
Sled has not been ridden yet but wanted to catch it before it becomes an issue.
I would bleed the pump to make sure the main line is bubble free, then with the engine running at idle, pull up on the oil pump linkage with a wire. Do this until all the bubbles are out of the lines. Should pump out fairly quick.
for the bubbles that are just below the reservoir you can negatively pressurize the oil tank with a vacuum. that should bring the bubbles up out of the line. straightening the to allow gravity to help is also a good idea.
if it keeps happening, you might consider drilling the oil cap.
Also if I pull up on th eoil arm won't that open the throttle body as well? Isn't it a shaft connecting them? I know on the old sleds you could do that but I don't see how that will work on these.
