I have a 84-SE, I see there is heavy oil build up on the oil metering pump and on the oil pan. Is it coming form the pump or pan? Or are the hoses from the oil metering pump leaking? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/dunno.gif Does anyone know?

j9fd3s 02-10-2003 11:48 AM

Its hard to say where to find a shaft like that for cheap.If mine starts doing that the OMP is getting pulled off and a block off plate will be in its place.

block off plate!.....then it would need to be premix then right?

j9fd3s 02-11-2003 11:56 AM

yes, if you remove the metering pump, you need to pre-mix
