I promise that when I find out which model and series this is and get the relevant manual I will stop asking silly questions, well I figured out how to edit a post [emoji1303][emoji1303]. Would I be right in saying that this is part of the mechanism for the automated oil/fuel mixing. I believe there are other posts about premix vs auto mixing so off I go to seek the knowledge of the forum
Look on the F or G parts diagrams. Probably two stroke auto injection pump related. We never had that in the USA, so many of us have never seen it in person.

Will do, I intend to remove it and just do premix, like in a another post less chance of a part failure ruining a weekend ride.
From what I have seen and been told you may not want to remove it completely as it connects through the case half to a gear that is driven off the idler under the clutch pack. I would remove the oil line from the pump and the carb and then plug it at both ends but leave the pump in place. Just my .02$

Yep the pump body looks to be part of the crankcase, so rubber bungs and remove the cable
If the oil injection works properly, KEEP IT! It's a much better method than premix, as the amount of oil being injected varies not only by RPM, but by throttle position as well. IE: very little oil needed or injected at idle, but plenty at high RPM WOT. I have a 71 Kawi 250 with oil injection, and it's a beautiful thing.

Quite ok with keeping it if it works, so any ideas on what to look for in regards to working properly, this is my return to 2 strokes since the late 70s Kx and Rm’s such simple times lol
