    How to connect oil pressure switch?

    My Briggs v-twin replacement engine for my riding mower came with an oil pressure switch. I know it is not necessary, but might save my engine some day. How can I connect it so it works? Do I just jumper a hot wire to it or ? Any help is appreciated.

    oil catch can location

    hey, I want to get the strut mount catch can, but I didn't want to install it in the back by the tire... where else can I mount it? I was thinking maybe in front of the engine, or where the rear fender mounts in front of the tire

    Not sure if this is where I need to put this, but I thought I would like to share a few pictures of the Rupp fork oil display I made.

    My engine will just shut off mid ride on my mini bike. Someone told me it was probably the low oil sensor. Can i just disconnect it or do I have to remove it completely?

    12v for Oil Pump on Turbo Lifan Project

    Trying to finish up my turbo Lifan project. Does anyone have any tips on getting 12v from the stock flywheel to power the oil pump? I read I need a genuine GX160 Honda flywheel to accomplish this. Is this true? Any tips would be great!

    Non-hemi oil leak???

    Pulled out and rode my CAT with a non-hemi pred the other day. Has maybe 4 hours total run time on it. After a day of sitting, I had nice oil puddle on the floor. Couldn't see where it was coming from. Anybody else have issues with oil leaks on stock engines--could it be the case or seals?

    Metal shavings in oil

    Predator 212cc filled with Rotella T5 oil for its initial running. I have changed the oil 3 times now within 30 minutes of run time between each. The metal slurry has lessened, but there is still a good amount. I know I shouldn't expect too much from a 95.00$ engine, but is what I'm seeing...

    Oil smells like gas

    I went to check me oil, still at the threads, and wiped some on my finger, and I smelled it, it had a slight smell of gas. Is that because these small engines store the oil right under the piston? Or because when I shut it off gas is in the cylinder and goes down in the oil? Don't think it's...

    How sensitive is the Predator oil sensor?

    Hopefully a simple question... On my Predator Hemi build, how sensitive is the oil sensor? I've read that it will shut down simply by riding around corners. I've also read it will shut the engine down when doing wheelies? The wheelie thing I can understand, but shutting down while leaning into...
