REMOVE OIL INJECTION ON 200 MERC

[TNBASSIN]

What all do I need to do to remove the oil injection on my 91 200 Merc? Do I need to remove the oil pump shaft from the powerhead or can I just plug the hole? I had an oil hose bust a couple of weeks ago but I never had any warning alarms. I believe I would rather mix the oil myself to be on the safe side. I checked compression and all cylinders were 120 lbs. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Bassin,<br />Yes pull the shaft out. Plug the hole with a plate and gasket. Be sure to seal off the oil line to the fuel pump so no air gets in.<br /><br />I would put new lines on it and use it myself they were over 10yrs old.<br /><br />corm

Thanks Corm for the info. This pump and hoses have only been on for about 2 1/2 years. As for the sensor for the oil pump, can I just unplug it or do I need to remove it also? Appreciate the help.
