Title: Kawasaki Z250A
Post by: Binman180 on April 04, 2015, 09:19:59 PM

Hello all,

Posting to help out a friend with low oil pressure woes.

http://kz400.createforumhosting.com/rebuilt-z250a-low-oil-pressure-t20814.html

So I tested the gauge for him and it was for all intents and purposes accurate. Does anyone have any experience with this bike? Perhaps any ideas on what to try next? Currently looking down the avenue of some larger displacement engine oil pump if the dimensions are right.

Thanks in advance, Ryan.

As I remember them its a roller bearing crank so the pressure won't be high anyway

Is it same engine as a kl250? Check the heads camshaft bearings if so. I had 5 or 6 heads for mine, all with knackered head camshaft bearing. Think it was £60 to have new bronze insert machined into place.
