Elite 50 oil screen

Post by lovemyelite50 »

Hello guys, I was wondering if I could take the oil screen completely out of my elite 50, and that it would still run and be fine with out it

You risk things other than oil going through the oil pump and getting into the motor. If the screen is dirty, clean or replace if damaged.
Nothing like getting stroked!

I agree with bakaracer. You don't want to risk running without an oil filter. Is there a specific reason you want to run without it?
