Hi guys.

Hi Guys.

I opened the oil scavenge pump last night and the pin was off. also was there a piece of debry in the pump so the pump could not turn.

little roundish chunk of metal? I have seen the little decomp toes get caught in there when they broke off.

It was only the outer rotors in the small housing that was damaged. The thick inner one was not damaged. There was a huge chunk from the valve cap in there. Will start it tonight.

Yip. Together and running the American dream. Purr like a kitten. Scavenge pump and debris was the problem. Not a drop of oil spilled out in the airbox while riding.
