Hi, the grey color of the oil is the same situation for trimmer, chainsaws, etc.? Becasue sometimes I see cylinders with a very sticky gray paste and the cylinder, piston and ring are so damaged I mean all are so striped, that I can feel so deep the scratches.

I know that some people use old gasoline, maybe with condensed water, but I do not know really what's the cause the sticky gray paste. Thanks!!!!

u gonna do prop shaft seals on this one?

[backwoodsctryboy]

@MyBrilliantChannel u cant fill it from the top hole because it will pressureize the lower unit when u pump it in
