After setting the throttle lever free play, always verify the oil
pump adjustment is set correctly.
Oil Pump Adjustment
NOTE: Use a mirror to accurately view the alignment
marks.
1. On some engines the oil pump is located under the intake
boots and you may have to remove the air box and may
need to unplug the CDI box and coils.
2. Verify carburetor/throttle body synchronization.
3. Loosen the carburetor boot adapters and carefully move
them so that you can see and adjust the oil pump cable.
4. Verify that the oil pump alignment marks are aligned at the
point where the throttle slides begin to rise from their fully-
closed positions.
5. If they are not aligned, make the necessary adjustments by
adjusting the oil pump cable. In small increments, loosen
the lock nut that is closest to the oil pump (A). and move
the mark that is on the oil pump arm by tightening or
loosening the adjustment nut (B) as needed to get the line
to the desired position.
6. Lock the lock nut (A).
7. Verify that the oil pump marks line up (C) as outlined in
step 4.
8. Re-install carburetors, air box and plug in the CDI and coils
if they were taken off in step 1.
9. Check idle to specification and adjust if needed.
