 Yes, yes, a thousand times *yes*...THANK YOU!
one of the dumbest ideas for a bug engine ever sold... all it meant was
blown coolers/seals...
ALL the oil pressure does, folks, is ensure that there is a proper supply to
the bearing surfaces..after that? it's just wasted energy...These engines
don't NEED a whole wizz-bang of pressure..they are a hoizontal engine with a
nearly submerged cam, "3" main bearings and a stubby little crankshaft You
ALREADY see worn pump tangs/cam slots from the power needed to pressurize oil
to the stock pressures...
