Hello,
I'm wondering what's the proper way to bleed the air out of the oil injector pump on my Puch Magnum MKII. There's a small screw on the pump, possibly a bleeder screw...
1) Does the screw just need to be loosened or completely removed?
2) Where will the bled air/oil come out? Screw-hole or pump outlet?
3) Does the pump-outlet tube need to be submersed in oil so as to not suck air back in?
Thanks,
Mike
Mike,you fell thru the cracks,I guess! I'll look in my manual and see if it addresses it,o.k.?Get back to you shortly I hope.
Hi Don,
THanks... I may have accomplished it last night. I connected the pump back up to the intake manifold and ran w/ a tank of 50:1. Unlike a brake system, I've been told that the pump should "probably" purge out any air it has in the line, so I just ran for awhile. If I knew how thick the smoke should be, I could tell if I'm getting double the required oil, but the bike's new to me. After I run it for a little while longer, I'm going to try a suggestion Chris made while back: run for 4 minutes at 3500 rpms and I should get 10cc of oil. I'll have to estimate the 3500 rpms though, as I don't have a tach. But if you have a Puch manual that addresses the oil pump procedures, any info would be helpful. I'm looking into buying my own such manual.
Thanks,
Mike
Right,Mike! Go to www.mopedwarehouse.com and order one along with any parts you may need.
