96 Challenger shutting down on top end

[John Congdon]

787 Rotax ran great for about 20 minutes wide open then suddenly shut down. Was able to start right away but shut down again. I guessing this is a heat sensor shutting it down when it gets too hot.The motor was pumping water though. Someone told me it could be not getting enough oil from the injector and running lean on oil. Said the remedy is to eliminate the oil pump/ injector and mix the gas and oil.

Check the plugs?, and do compression test as well, hopefully nuth'n serious happened. You can eliminate the oil pump, by getting block off kit, or just capping the lines, but you'll need to leave the resivoir in though, since the same oil being injected, also lubes the bottom end. If you mix 40/1=16oz to 5gals

Plugs are new. Was just serviced before we ran. Could this be an oil problem?

They might've been new B-4 this run, now with it shutting down, they might be burnt/leaned out. If leaned, yah, i'd suspect that oil wasn't get'n in with the gas.
