The SE Billit Camplate & Oil Pump kit Live`s...!!!!
Hey guys, i just couldnt let this alone an let it beat me.... this afternoon, (before i was about to make the camplate my new expensive wall hanger...lol) i ripped into this camplate again.... i was just so conviced that, that was where the problem was at... and sure as all mighty, i found a blocked port in the camplate, and thats why it wasnt getting any oil to the pump. (man i looked inside that thing a million times, never saw anything before this time) Good reason why the pump and the chest cavity stayed so dry. It looked like it just wasnt cleaned out very well after the machining process. It was a big machined chip that got stuck in it... lodged all the way accross the port when ever it tried sucking oil. (these camplates are anodized black... you cant see sheit inside of them... only way i saw down inside was, i made a fiber optic light, stuck it down EVERY port hole, thats when i saw something inside of it.) Anyway, i got the debris out of it, pulled the bike back down and put the SE kit back in, and holy shidski, oil pressure instantly...!!! Before i actually ran the engine, i pulled the oil pressure switch on it before i turned it over and hooked a gauge to it... spun the motor over until i saw the gauge build up pressure, then i knew for sure that i found the EVIL problem. The motor might have turned over twice and the pressure popped right up nicely...! Cold engine was 60psi - Warm was 55psi
Hey you guyz, thankyou so very very very much for stickin this out with me... as i`ve said all along, i am forever greatful to you all for your help, thoughts and idea`s. I knew this was baffling you guys too... i just HAD to find out what the hell was going on with this thing, i just KNEW it had to be something retarded. For a few momments at time`s, i thought i was really loosen my mind over this weird episode.
