Vacuum in 2 stroke reservoir
Posted: Sat Jan 20, 2024 12:52 pm
Hi all,
Whist prepping for an engine removal to replace the crank, I noticed some air bubbles in the 2 stroke oil supply lines to the motor.
I also noticed that the 2 stroke reservoir tank had the sides sucked in as if there was a vacuum in the deposit. Opening the reservoir cap released the vacuum and the tank went back to its original shape.
Can anyone explain what could have caused this to happen?
Have had air in the oil lines but never a vacuum in the tank.
Thanks
Carlos
