6.5 clone dies..

[jeremys14]

it dies when i do a donut. just curious whats the cause of it. i'm kinda thinking it has to due with the sudden swing of oil and gas away from the normal position.

If you have a low oil sensor, then this could be the problem-just unhook it.

+1. And as dumb as it sounds, make sure you've got lots of fuel.

 

[jeremys14]

fuel was full. so its ok to go ahead and disconnect the oil sensor?

 

[Doc Sprocket]

Yup, unhook it, do donut, report back.
Oil sensor designed for idiotsticks too stoopid to check/change their oil periodically.
The way I see it, if you're dumb enough to run engine multiple years with no regard for oil, you deserve a blown engine...

look on the front of your motor, there should be alittle goldish color box with a couple wires coming from it, one of witch goes threw the engine block, cut the wire off on the outside of the block, and unplug and take the little gold box off.

o. so cut the yellow wire by the block. pull it through the black coupler and take the gold box off?

how i do it, bit if you want you can just unplug it, that way it doesnt shut off, but if you ever wanted to sell or it or something you could just plug it back in, your call, but yes just unplug the yellow wire and cut it off from the block and unplug the black wire from the little box and take the little box off,
