Super Smoke!...

I mean I took the pipe off that goes onto the inlet manifold, after the pump. The air was just from pulling it off. I Left it off overnight. It was higher than where it pushes on, not hanging down...
WoW!...
I emptied out the 2/ bottle and rebled the pump in last night with good oil. I put the small diameter clear pipe on that runs from pump to inlet, but I left it empty.
Since last night it has risen 4inches just gravity feeding through the pipe!! I’m seriously thinking of getting a one way valve if possible. Anyone know of any purpose made bits? Before I search... -

Before I search...Just found out an old pump and removed the oil out union, it’s a simple press fit. It DOES have a ball bearing and spring jobbie in it, the end of the spring had gathered a ‘plug’ of micro-lint, which was stopping the valve working properly. I’m guessing that the one that’s on the bike will be the same. I’ll soon see when I take off the pump for the umpteenth time!...

Sorry bud, I’ve already cleaned it up and put it back on the bike. It’s better now though, hasn’t rose at all...
I don’t know how to post pics with my iPhone either... -
@SpookDog
why was that oil in your exhaust, is it from your oiltank reservoir that was gravity feeding?
that valve youve mentioned, how does it work, i mean how it is supposed to open or closeIt’s built into the silver union that delivers 2/ through the small diameter pipe to the inlet manifold.
It’s a small spring and ball bearing...And yes, it was gravity feeding. The rest is in the thread...
Just one of the obscure & amazing things that weigh down on my attempts to create something meaningful in my life
