i am in the process of rebuilding an '87 merc 70hp elpto that had a top cylinder connecting rod (crankside) bearing failure.
although the oil tank was full, there seemed to be trapped air in the tubes.
long story short. the oil tank is not going back in, or are any other oil pump parts.
can this be done safely? i am flip floppin on the idea of keeping the oil injection, but cannot risk running too lean on oil.
