Vortec 6000 low oil pressure issue solved with a $2 gasket. The oil sump pick up tube o ring was flat and dried out… bought an oil pan gasket, which it already needed and the o ring… replaced them and life is good. Time to upgrade the mirrors, headlights, brakes and give her a massive detail.

    Been a bit of a mission. So I was running lean at 35 psi changed the filter and fuel pump. Then I'm running 40 psi which is too low and still dumping the pressure. So pulled the regulator out of the back, when to start the bike and it's pissing fuel out of the regulator. So hopefully that's the last step to getting back to full power

    Great video thanks. I have a YBR125 not starting, some kinda fuel issue. I've replaced the pump/impeller and also cleaned injector, no difference. Beginning to think the only thing left to check is the regulator. That is built into the pump assembly .. haven't checked carefully enough but suspect I can't just replace the regulator, would have to replace whole pump assembly which is £££. Maybe its possible to bypass this reg in the pump assembly and install some external regulator in the line. Thanks for this its helpful to know about this stuff.
