.. or maybe arsematic TDM problem.

Me Scottoiler has stopped functioning. Its not the feed, there is plenty of oil. Traced the vacuum poipe back to carb T (without fairing/tank removal) and vacuum poipe looks intact. Took vacuum poipe off at oiler and couldn't feel. vacuum but guess it's a tiny vacuum anyways?

Took badger off tonoight and sucked on the delicious vacuum connector...and a feed arrived! So either TDM don't have enuff puff or valve is stiff.

Tryin to get oil ooot of Scottoiler to rinse innards....but how on earth do you get oil oooooot? Does the top come off?

Vac will be strongest on over run but if you pull the pipe off the oiler while its ticking over I'd have thought you'd hear a change in the engine if the pipes ok.
