Just had our 02' skidoo zx 800cc rotax motor rebuilt and with your help hooked up the crankshaft oil lines.
We ordered new oem oil lines and installed.
The builder informed me he lubed the crank real good.
We put a 1/2 cup of oil in the new fuel and new oil in the oil tank . We were ready to test
1. We pulled the rope start slowy to see if oil would fill the cranksfaft oil tubes ( clear tubing)- it did not!
2. We pull started the motor and ran it for about 10 seconds high idle and still no oil in the tubes..
shut her down and need to know the next step
is there a way to check for oil pressure?
btw- that oil pump setup sure is in a hard to get to location.
opinions appreciated...
the following pic shows where the tube (s) go brass
oil check valves. I'm not sure how the crank cyl oil injector check valves work....educate me
obliviously the left line is not installed in the pic fwiw
