175 tri moto engine question

[vbb71zoso]

what is the part of the engine on the rt. hand side with the small black cover and two tubes coming off of it? there is nothing behind it but a deep hole. when i took the cover off, about 1/4 cup of old gas came out.

Also. I think this engine has been outside for a long time. I have it running but was affraid to run it at any length figuring it was full of grime. besides cracking the case, is there a way to flush it out?

as always....thanks.....vince

That's the oil injection pump, most guys get rid of it & premix their gas.

that was the cover to the right. i disabled the pump last night. iti is the cover to the left in the picture that i am wondering about.

Wait a minute, I think the oil pump is up front on that side. I'm not quite sure what that is, mine didn't have it when I got it.

i think they are the gastank pressure pump tubes?
injector lines are on the right hand side ,front of the motor with the 2 little tubes
you can look all the parts up on microfiche , maybe bike bandit, or cycle parts nation

That cover to the left is a gas overflow chamber, you can clean it out by taking the three screws out and just cleaning it out other than that don't worry about it.
