Right side runs fine. So does left in idle. After a small Ride it starts to splutter like this. If left to idle it pushes the air bubbles out then idles fine and starts to smoke like right cyl.... Any idea? Tightened all clamps. So no sucking in air.

Bosslock, in the absense of any specific replies to your question, have a search on this site for other oil supply threads, there have been a few, (including debates on whether to use clear pipe etc!).
There is a search function - have a look with a few different keywords.
Sounds like a bleeding procedure issue to me, have you got manuals for this or similar models?

I prefer clear pipe myself, as you can see how well bled the pipes are, some disagree as apparently the clear pipe can soften with operating heat and theiretically squash and constrict flow. I'd rather be able to see if the oil is fliwing personally, but I'm no expert.

There's also some people telling a story that the clear pipe lets in air bubbles.
Those peddling that story need a lesson in physics.

Clear pipe lets in bubbles?

Oh, righto, that'll be why I can't bleed brakes firmly using clear...
Ah, wait on.. yes, I can..

( & nor have I had any problem using them as oil feed lines, except for age hardening, which happens to 'em all, anyhow..)

Well, I guess we didn't manage to recruit Bosslock to our ranks, must have given up on us and gone for a chai latte and quinoa fritter with his hipster friends. Oh dear, we may he a bit out of touch :-)
