  • @Fastlaneprojects_vlogs8622

    Do you need to change the oil line passage way as well or no? Because the 12 tooth has a bigger passage way than my OEM 13 tooth, idk if it’s because my new 12 tooth pump is not OEM or idk but the dowel from the old pump fits loose in the new 12 tooth oil pump!

  • @19Raven66

    Thank you for the info & your time.Question for this modification of the oil squirter do you have to change the oil pump or at a different type?

    • @mechanicsantics3575
      @mechanicsantics3575 Рік тому

      Yes the 07 and up oil pump must accompany the addition of the squirter. Yamaha kept the same pump basically but it has 12 teeth vs the older with 13. It therefore spins faster and has more capacity for the squirter.

      Bought my yfz450 new in 2003 and have not done this, but I need to take the side case off to replace the check ball/seal causing the oil from the reservoir to drain/leak into the crankcase. Anyway I was going to send my side case to the exact place you refer to until I saw this video. I should have my brand new Yamaha side case and all parts soon. THANK YOU for making and sharing this video. I watched another one of your videos cause I was wondering if the oil pump was actually different or just a different part #, different teeth makes sense. Thank you again

    I have a 2004 wr450f that I left the gas in for 10 years. I rebuilt the carb but not the midbody. It would run with the choke on, but once you pushed in the choke, it stopped. I purchased a midbody seal kit and replaced the melted and mushy seals, now it runs like it should. My kit was a moose racing and it came with a security torx key. it was a Keihin CR carb.

    "Have to run with the choke on" thats me , starts & idles fine , only revves with the choke on , stripped it down , twice . 3rd time after watching your video, stripped down the mid section aswell, wiped , saw the mid seals were ganky & starting to rot , reassembled without new seals & the problem has gone worse , that was the other difference i did , so new seals ordered. Will put a return post here it that remedies the issue
