    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Split cases (part question)

PXL_20231028_183918060.jpg I split the Cases on my 1150 and have a question about a part Suzuki calls "oil gallery nozzle" that sits in the far right side of the top case Crank shaft Journal. The Engine is going back together with high volume oil pump gears. Should I leave this in or take it out? I am looking for experienced builders opinions as to what would be the best way (leave it in or out) for oil pressure , flow etc.... Thanks.
 
Leave it. Suzuki put it there for a reason.
 
That's there to restrict the amount of oil going to the (roller) crank bearings. Removing it would get more oil to the crank bearings at the expense of the cam (plain) bearings. Not a good choice.
 
Leave them in. The restrictors give priority pressure to the bearing surfaces that the engineer deems critical in adverse (high temp/low viscosity/low pressure) situations.
