TROUBLE SHOOTING
L U B R I C A T I O N : After 50 HOURS OPERATION, drain oil and add 1 oz. oil additive P/N 1190-47-05
into the crankcase, then refill with fresh SAE #30 Non-Detergent oil to oil level line. Check the oil
level periodically. No further oil changes are necessary unless water enters the crankcase, usually
from condensation or a leaking pushrod seal. This type of contamination would cause the oil level to
rise above the line and during operation the oil would have an opaque discoloration. Change the oil
a n d additive and replace seals if necessary. Extra 2 Oz. bottles of additive are available as Part 1190
-47-05. When draining the crankcase, be careful to replace the aluminum drain plug without pinching
t h e O-ring seal, as this would cause leakage of oil. This drain plug should be finger tight only. Do not
tighten with a pliers.
The oil wicks are lubricated at assembly, but add one squirt of SAE #30 non-detergent motor oil in
each oil fill hole in the top of the intake manifold prior to initial operation and every week or
5 0 hours thereafter. Failure to oil the wicks regularly will cause premature pump leakage.
