i got an 87 lt 80 and im wondering what steps are taken to remove the oil pump system! any help w this would be appreciated! also does removing the oil pump and mixing ur own gas really increase some power? what other reasons for doing this?

 

It's pretty simple actually. It took me longer to get the darn oil tank out than anything else.

Pull of clutch cover and remove the plastic piece on the end of the crank shaft.

Remove the two bolts that hold the oil pump on (Allen Screws)

Go to LT80 Hop-Ups and order the block off kit.

I had to remove the rear fender and battery to get the oil tank out.

Make sure you cap off the oil inlet on the carb, the kit comes with a plug.

 

what r u mixing ur gas at? what do you recomend for mixing oils? so does it really increase power at all? thanks for the reply i was curious about how to block off the inlet on the carb.

 

i just got mine running tonight after rebuild. i mixed at 32-1 but i might run a little higher next gallon mixed. seemed to smoke just a tad bit. but ran perfectly fine. wouldnt say so much of a big power gain although i took it off while doing whole build so i dont know the difference between just oil pump removal and all stalk. I WOULD say that it is just a no brainer that it puts less strain on the motor alternately giving it more power some would say

 

No more power IMO.

FYI:::
Stock = from the factory
Stalk = what you've done to get that court order against you....
LMFAO!!!!!

 

sorry. that would be the fault of my spell check on my phone. you would love to see what some of my messeges turn out to read after I push send.

 

k this mite b a dumb question lt80 but whats IMO?

 

In My Opinion!!
