Hi, I have a 1988 suzuki 9.9 The hose that goes to the top of the oil pump came off. I hooked it back up but I am not sure the oil injection system is working ok. Does anyone know if I need to bleed the system and how to do this with the limited room in there (you can't even see the oil pump unless you remove the resavoir. How does this system work? Does it send oil up the line to the fuel connector on the front of the outboard and then that travels with the fuel into the carb? Do most people bypass this system entirely and if so what is needed to do that? One more question is it seems like the engine is getting too hot. I removed the thermostat and was going to drop it into a boling pot of water on the stove. At wat temperature should I see a change? Thanks, these suzukis are new to me but it seems like a nice motor being electric start and oil injected.
