Oil pump settings

[midlifecrisisrd]

Hi,

Looked in the haynes manual to check oil pump setting as was a little smokey. It is an R model but haynes manual contradicts itself over whether throttle is open or closed for setting.

As said it is an R but has 4L1 on the pulley and yellow dot which I thought was an earlier 350 pump. Reset it as closed and a lot cleaner burning, it was too high anyway.

Also got one with 1m1 on it on my lc2.

What is the definate way of setting ( not much in it by the look of the R ) the Lc2 and later models.

Did search for oil pump but got pages of stuff nothing to do with my question.

Have you tried the Yamaha workshop manual - you can download a copy from here rd350lc.net/pageWM.htm

LC2 service manual is listed, the link should take you straight to it - 83 model lc2 just like mine and it's in english(on the left) and french (on the right).

Thanks,
