Best way to plug the oil injector hole on a '83 nu50

Post by Buckeroo Bob »

I want to remove the oil pump on a rebuilt '83 Nu50. Rather than just disable the pump, I'd like to remove it and get it out of the way and switch to pre-mix. What is the best plug for the task?

Is that the urban express? The regular express you can use and expanding rubber plug. I saw the idea on youtube. I have also seen mountainbike handle bar endplug used as well. I have to get one of the plugs to plug my oil pump hole on my express as well.

Dont use a rubber plug. Why are you disabling the oil pump? Are you running a bbk? If not leave it and just tie it open. Bad idea premixing sucks. If you have to plug it search big money oil plug.
