LT80 Oil pump/thumb throttle
New member here, had a few scans of the forum and looks like lots of great info and members. We just got an Lt80 and I want to lighten the pressure on the thumb throttle, aside from the pulling the lever spring and lubing up the cable will removing the oil injection pump help too? I read it somewhere that it would but I don't see how it could.
Thanks in advance..

Nope...no help at all as the pump is driven of the primary clutch and not via the throttle. What I did was snip a few coils from the carb slide spring...but only a few as it's critical that there is enough spring force to close that slide upon release. That will significantly reduce the throttle pull effort.
Another popular option is a twist throttle conversion...might be worth looking into...
