I'm disconnecting the oil injection on my 97 trailBoss 250. Is there any thing special I need to do other than just disconnect the hoses? (other than mix my oil and fuel that is)

 

Plug the hose...........Caper.........

 

I cut the hose and plugged both ends.....so I guess I'm go to go. I guess it's a low oil warning sensor in the oil tank, I disconnected those wires also.

 

Why are you going to pre-mix instead of the oil injuction??............I never did see on fail yet .........Caper...............

 

i know ive heard alot about disconnecting the oil pump gear and puting a block off plate on. do a search to find out more info as i think you want to do more then what you have.

 

I bought this ATV from a guy that works for me. The ATV hasn't run in over 3 years, been setting in his shed due to a hole in the tranny case from loose chain(he couldn't afford to have fixed). I've have rebuilt the tranny but wasn't too sure about whether to trust the oil injection after setting for so long. I've mixed gas for years so it's no big deal for me.

 

as long as the oil pump still had prime it most likey wouldnt been good to go as caper said they rarely ever go bad.

 

I may check it later and re-connect if it is working fine. Right now I just want to get it running again since I have spent a lot of time and several hundred dollars rebuilding the tranny. I had to get a new ignition (previous owner lost key) so it hasn't been fired up since I bought it

 

I would leave it connected and just run some two-stroke oil mixed with the gas!!!...(first tank)..Caper........

 

And make sure the tank is going down in level while you run the first tank of mixed [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
