Re: retarded oil pump question
 

im pretty sure reversing the rotation would reverse the flow since you're reversing the mechanical operation of the pump.

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

just curious of why you want to reverse the flow? or is that the only way you can get it on?

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

I know this doesnt really relate to the oil pump's flow.. but

2stroke with an oil pump? help me

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

turbo banshee.

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

I dont think it will work perfectly because the timing is different, (when the oil enters and leves the pump but that doesn't mean it wont pump enough oil to keep a snail lubed. I would just make a bench tester for it 8)

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

it'll work fine in reverse, but the flow will be reversed.

unless its a spring type oil pressure regulator tyhats hidden in the block somewheres, nice way t ---- something up in a hurry,

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

space is limited, it would fit better if I could mount the gear the other way. I have to fit this whole thing in the space below the shiney thing (water pump):

think of what website your on. :1

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

so are you just trying to rig up an external pump type deal? if thats the case i don't think it would matter which way it spins, but I don't know anything about springs/diaphrams controlling the flow :1

Re: retarded oil pump question
 

Its not exactly "rigging" I'm using an Rz350 sidecover and machining the oil injection pump shaft to fit a Honda 300ex oil pump to get the pressure I need. I just need to make the shaft on the right look like the shaft on the left and I'm done.
