Even carb cleaner destroys o rings, can get oil pump refurbed if needs be, or s/h off eBay?

i would suggest not using the autolube and mixing the oil with the gas

GAS? WTF! Are you running on propane or natural? Petrol please!

[claws]

@oldman i mix the 2 stroke oil with the gas. i use a 2% mix and not need to worry about autolube. works great

@oldman WOW! I thought that carb cleaner would be OK???

[Calum]

I would have thought something more along the lines of wd-40 gt85. Something that lubricates.

As said, carb cleaner, brake cleaner, dries out seals. So it's a no go for oil pumps

It's petrol! Not gas

[claws]

@oldman does it matter? i say gas if i want to and you can say petrol. im not from the uk so i dont say petrol

[Calum]

@claws It matters big TIME! Since it's dt125r.co..UK!!!

I'm messing, I'm sure he's just teasing you. Gas is ambiguous though. As you can run a car on gas, like LPG. Maybe he thinks you've done an LPG conversion on your DTR

[claws]

@Calum ah yea haha
