o.k. i got a picture of how my oil lines look after i started the car and did a mild rev. the oil line farthest to the right looked like it had no oil in it at all before start up...the rest appeared to have oil. then after start up, there was some oil in the empty line, but it didnt fill, and after the rev, it filled a bit more but still not all the way. i get the 27 code on the ECU. the line as it appears has an air bubble between the clumps of oil. do i need to replace this oil line? can anyone guide me on this?

I'm trying to figure this out right now. The difference, I replaced my Oil Metering Lines and they are still - CLEAR. I speculate It Is the OMP.

 

yeah but 3 of my oil lines are completely full all the time, and the last one only filled partially after i started her up and mildly revved it. then when i shut the car off and looked at the lines, the 1 line had the air bubble between solid clumps of oil(i think clump is not a good word to use with oil hehe) but you get the point...what do i do now?

 

by the way my car is an 89 N/A Vert. please help me find a cure for my limp car.

 

Maybe Im blind, but it looks like there is oil in all of the lines to me.

My car leaks out of one of the lines ( Ill fix it someday ) but for right now Im just premixing.

I may go to a S4 front cover so i can just get rid of the OMP's all together.

 

does anyone know anything about this? there is a lot of people viewing the thread but noone is posting or helping...please help me out. i know you guys have come across this or have some good advice about it.
will i need to replace the OMP? can i just replace the 1 line that looks odd? can anyone help?

there doesnt appear to be any oil leaking in my engine bay anywhere...i think

 

add premix 2cycle oil to the gas tank for safty and drive the car some ,check the line after a ride to see if the air has been pushed out if it has just add fresh gas to dilute the premix

 

but it is hard to drive when after or near a mile running the check engine light comes on and the car is in limp mode...

 

are there any other possibilities why my ECU will give me a code 27(faulty OMP) if it appears that all my oil lines have oil?(with the exception of the line on the far right which has oil and air bubbles)? can i just replace the 1 oil line? where are all the Gurus??

 

o.k. i started her up and all the oil lines are completely full...freak!! does this mean that OMP is not the problem? could the code actually be a 10, and a 17? instead of a 27? sheesh can someone offer some advice? oil lines are completely full from omp to wherever they go!
