Ok, on my weber (45 DCOE) there are two fittings in the intake manifold where the oil lines go. One for the rear rotor and one for the front, I think. The brake booster line was attached with the rear rotor oil line (thanks to a T fitting or something like that). This resulted with oil getting in the master cylinder, which had to be rebuilt because of this. So right now I have both oil lines hooked up to the front fitting for the front rotor. Is the rear rotor getting enough oil, or should this be fine for mild, everyday driving? Sorry if this was confusing. Thanks

If the lines are both hooked up to the front rotor then stand by to watch the newest rotary grenade! The rear rotor is getting no oil. if it has been driven for and amount of time chances are that irrepairable damage has already been done.

Thanks, I won't be driving it until it gets hooked up to the rear rotor.
