Oil Pump Fittings Identif

ication:

Ultima

Shovelhead engines use a 1992 & later style oil pump as shown in Figure 2.

1. The feed line is mounted in the center of the outer cover of the pump and is

pointing up.

2. The return line is mounted to the very bottom of the outer cover and is pointed

forward. This line goes to the Filter Input. See Figure 5.

3. The Crank case vent is mounted to the engine case just above the oil pump.

4. The feed line can be moved by removing the plug at the bottom of the outer

pump cover and reinstalling the fittings.

Oil Line Routing

Figure 3 Tank cutaway shows the oil line identification for Stock FXST

type tanks and

Ultima

brand FXST

type oil tanks.

Figure 4 Tank cutaway shows the oil line identification for Ultima

brand round oil tanks.

As you can see, both tanks have an internal return line that goes to the far side of the

tank to improve oil circulation. If you are using this type of tank you must have the

return line connected to the correct fitting. NEVER ASSUME YOUR OIL TANK IS CLEAN

ENOUGH.
