2 oil inlets. Do I need both?
« on: June 26, 2021, 07:25:43 PM »
Can I cap off the oil inlet on the carb and just use the oil inlet on the intake manifold (just like my zx50).  My oil inlet on the intake manifold is sucking air from the carb inlet.  I am assuming the little inline brass connector is a check valve (and it failed).  Any insight?  Thanks in advance.

I don't understand why your setup would have 2 oil inlets.  If your carb has an oil inlet, wouldn't the hole/nipple on the manifold be for a vacuum line?

This bike has 2 oil injection nipples.  One on the carb and one of the intake manifold.
