Heh, 3 days and the oil tank's empty on mine mate. Did you say it was a ball bearing on the oil pump not seating correctly and, if so, is this an easy fix??

So have a close look at the Oil returnpipe inside the Oiltank, if it is not brocken at bottonside.
Had a Goldstar Racer with a central ally oiltank and the same problem with an empty oiltank after 3 days.
The returnpipe was cut off at the botton, so the oil is flowed from the returnside into the crankcase.
