Puking Pan
Puking Pan
When my 50 Pan FL sits for more than a day, oil drains back into the cases and then pukes it out the chain oiler when I start it. Brand new S&S oil pump, inspected the check ball - looks good. I know that it is supposed to puke some oil out to oil the chain, but not a Quart. Running belt now not chain. What is causing this & how can I make it stop ???
Still sounds like the check ball's not seating. Not that it's part of the problem, but by which method did you stop the oil flow to the primary chain?
Oil sumping to the crankcase can happen when the motor sits unridden for awhile. You start it up with a tub under the primary to catch the quart. But, sumping doesn't happen all the time, and in such a short amount of time.

I don't think there is a reliable seat dressing tool. There was talk of a burnishing tool that "smeared" a seat to concentricity, but none are available commercially. You don't have to drain the crankcase though. Just remove the oil tank dipstick and start the motor. Watch the return line opening inside the tank as oil gets transferred back from the crankcase sump.
