I am draining the oil out of the reservoir in order to put fresh oil that I know the quality of. I've disconnected the oil feed line from the top of the pump and it is only drips out. Draining it is going to take a while, is this small flow (drip) normal or could I have a blockage in the line or tank?

Tank empty and air flows freely through feed line to pump, any way to test pump and line to carb? I pressurized tank by blowing on fill neck but nothing out of line between pump and carb

Re-fill the oil tank, make sure oil is getting to the pump (no air locks). Mix a small quantity of 30 to 1 fuel/oil mix. Empty any neat fuel from the float bowl and fuel tank. Run the engine on the mix with the pipe from the pump to the carb disconnected, if oil dribbles from the pipe when running, the pump is working. Re-connect the pipe and top the tank up with neat fuel.

Thanks, Installed the correct plug and filled it up with proper injection oil, burned through a tank and a half of fuel this weekend...what a great little quad these things are!
