    nissan 1990 90 hp oil injector

    I just got this motor used; the 3 lines out( 3 carbs) from the oil pump have little metal cylinders spliced in the middle. Are these supposed to be there, or have they been installed to disable or bypass the oil injection? They have a little arrow on them pointing toward the carb.

    crankshaft seals

    I think air -gas mixture is exchanging in crankcase between top two cylinders; not good suction at carb throats; 85 HP 89 Force 3 Cyl. compression etc good. Is it possible to do new crankcase seals or crankshaft seals without taking out power head completely?
