just reading through past posts - many have blocked off the oil injection - other than being able to adjust your own pre-mix has anyone had any problem with their oil injection failing ?

 

No, dont block it off, unless you are racing or modding the heck out of it why mess with it? I had an 89 with the oil inj always hooked up and that thing had a rough life, still on stock bore..

 

alot of racers block it off. Never heard of one failing, but who knows. It could happen i guess.


Hey check out https://atvconnection.com/ the best site on the net for ATV information.

 

I had one fail> it was on a 1991 baster. It long gone now. But when i had it i rebuilt the motor and removed the plastic gear that drives the pump.

 

Better safe than sorry. If you mix, you know the oil is in there. Otherwise, you have no way of knowing if the injector fails until it's too late. I had one for five years with no problems. I always tried to pay attention to whether or not it was smoking. It eventually burned a hole in the piston. When I had it rebuilt, we went ahead and blocked off the injector. No problems since.

 

I had a friend who's blaster's kept clogging all the time. he blew the egine a couple of times. I think he has since removed the injection. Dont remember what he said the problem was but..

 

nope to me it seems faster now that i did block it off but I wouldnt do it unless you were gonna start racing...98 Yamaha Blaster ct midrange national pipe,titan turf tamer tires on 190.douglas alum rims,scott grips
