Oil flow diagram

Post by PaulD » Mon Jul 15, 2019 6:59 am

After finding a lump of silicone in one of the oil gallery’s leading into the sump (see pic in previous thread) I’m now paranoid there are more lurking waiting to wreck the newly built motor when I start it up!
I’m thinking of blowing all the gallery’s clear with my airline while the barrels and head are off. A flow diagram would help me see which way round the oil flows. So has anyone got a diagram they could post for me please?

Thanks Mick, I’ve got the manual on cd but my laptops broken so I can’t read it

I am work as (No, really I am!) so cannot get to the cd's of the GSX manual.

However, thanks to "The Flying Banana" and Arnout we have these....

On the off chance you don't have another gasket, I have original one here that I am going to use to make up one for my 1100 as the sump is off and happy to trace it's outline for you as well (I'll even punch the holes but you can cut out!). I'll use Flexiod gasket paper.
I also when fitting use Stag Wellseal to the surfaces so if it has to come off again, its easy (so I'm told!).

Good links Kryten :-)

Spot on Kryton thanks. Yes please uncle Bob I’ll have a gasket if that’s ok? I use Wellseal aka the brown shit :lol: I’m a bit clumsy with gaskets so I’m bound to tear it :roll:
