1. Before adjusting the oil pump,
check engine idle RPM and
carburetor adjustments which
are found in the owner’s
manual supplement.
2. Loosen throttle cable jam nut
and turn adjuster in or out until
there is 1/16″ - 1/8″ (.16 - .32
cm) of throttle lever travel be-
fore throttle slide starts to
open. See Owner’s Manual
Supplement.
3. Place very slight pressure on the throttle lever until all freeplay
is removed from throttle cable (to the point where the carb slide
is just starting to rise).
4. Lift boot up off adjuster sleeve. Remove the oil pump cover.
Loosen the cable adjuster locknut. Adjust oil pump cable until

5. Tighten the locknut.
6. Recheck adjustment. If correct, slide boot all the way down over
the upper portion of the bottom nut to ensure good sealing
against water entry. Reinstall oil pump cover and gasket.
