2T Oil Pipe Filter? was created by GaryDean

Hi Guys, can you fit a filter to your oil pipe feed from the oil tank to the oil pump on a DT400B
I have a remote check valve fitted as the autolube one was caput.
the remote 1 cured the problem of the crankcase filling with 2T oil.
My issue is it started to take oil again, I removed the inline remote check valve and blew carb cleaner through it, now it passes oil all the time, so being me I tried to take it apart to clean it, result was I snapped the nipple off. So Ive had to order another 1 £28.00 from yamaha.
I was hoping to be able to fit a filter in the oil pipe to stop and gunge going through (I did wash out the tank when I painted it originally) but not sure what time and if this would cause a restriction for the oil
Any info is appreciated

Yes, some members have fitted a filter in the oil feed line. There is an old thread somewhere, where a member posted a photo to show where in the hose he located it, to keep it all nice and tidy.
