Hello, new here at atvconnection. I have a question about the oil return on a Raptor. Is there any other screens (other than bottom of oil tank, oil filter, pump pickup in case) where debris could plug or clog the return oil getting back to the oil tank.
I fill my tank with oil, crank up the ATV it pulls the oil down fine, refill the tank until a total of 2qt is inside bike, It runs fine, oil will come out of the oil galley by camshaft, but oil only dribbles back to the oil tank from the return. I know this as I have pulled the return off the top of the oil tank and watched it as I ran the bike. After running the bike to get the oil warm, there is no oil in the oil tank, it is all still in the case. If I ride the bike for about 20min. oil will come out of the case breather tube.
I have checked the bottom of oil tank (clean), changed the oil filter, is the only other option to check for blockage is the oil screen in case?
Thanks,
RB

 

Anyone, any ideas?
