Hi,

I have a DT 175 (Year around 2000) that I want to clean the carby because its running rough.

How does one remove the 2 stroke oil line connected to the carb, so one can dismantle on the bench?

It seems to be connected with a non-removable clamp around the actual oil line.

Thanks in advance

Steve

 

Slide back the small metal collar and pull. The collar may well be long gone so just go with pull.

Use a pair of pliers but dont hang on it. The pipe can go hard and can make it tight on the spigot that can pull out. 

Generally at times like this people swap out the black pipe for clear so you can see the oil.

 

Yambits do a clear oil pipe kit for cheap

Hi

If the pipe has gone hard with age, you could pour hot water on it to soften it,

the brass oil pipe nipple/spigot on my DT carb was so tight in the pipe that it pulled out of the carb casting and it needed fettling to get it to fix back in to the carb casting.

 

they always stick, myself...I use a hot air gun to soften it and it pulls of easily, but you first have to slide the clamping sleeve thing back along the pipe
