Should I block this off?

Does your Spree/Elite already run great, and you're trying to make it quicker/faster? Need a monster motor swap? Discuss your ideas here.

Should I block this off?

In the picture above it shows the nipple that the oil pipe should be on. I have now changed to premix with a different carb. Should I block this off?

Cheers

Greetings:

I recommend you not start the engine until you do. Autoparts stores sell rubber caps for the purpose. Make sure to use a clamp on it. A leak there will ruin your day.

Blocked of using a length of pipe and a bolt with a clap at each end. Not coming of now :happy:

Just the kick start to sort (think it may be the circlip) and the trail tech to fit and I should be there. Its took ages but at least it should be right...I hope :coolcruise:
