Joe, Steve and all
,
       Tracy blocks the small oil feed passage between the front housing
and the front cover which completely
blocks oil to the metering pump and shaft............As I recall he
inserted a piece of rod into the oil passage
in the front housing with just enough protruding to bottom out in the front
cover.........Removing the metering
pump and drive gear /shaft and adding a blocking plate will save a few
ounces...........

On my 13B&#39;s, the oil supply to the metering oil pump shaft is a direct =
passage to the gallery at the nearest main bearing. =A0If the shaft is remo=

For those of us using oil premix with fuel:<br>
Do you remove the oil pump gear and shaft from the front cover and bolt on =
a block off plate?<br>
<br>
Do you keep the gear and shaft and just install the block off plate?<br>
