White letter with those rims
Was it break in oil, or regular oil? Don' think I ever changed mine, but it is due.What’s your thought on when I should change the break in oil I put in the Predator?
What’s the manual say ? My Honda said 20 hours and to use 10-30 oil . I put synthetic in it . I just did the yearly oil change a few weeks ago . I also changed hydraulic fluid . Have to admit I went way over the scheduled change . But the fluid looked like new and the filter was clean .What’s your thought on when I should change the break in oil I put in the Predator? It’s been maybe 5hrs and oil is cheap enough. I was gonna go 10, but since oil costs me 0.00 I was thinking of doing it this weekend. You think by now, it’s “clearanced” itself?
that sucks. I was pretty skeptical of them years ago, but that thought has long since left the building.Definitely out of the thousands out there most are ok, but if there is a bad one you can guarantee it is going to find its way into my possession.
I have been burned more than once by them so I generally just stay away all together.
Very true about the leak down teater, i often forget not everyone has tools kike that laying around.110% true, but in here…. You and I surely have a leak down tester, not sure about the other fellas. But I’d bet 75% of them have a compression gauge

Changing hydro fluid is mostly pointless. If it's not contaminated, (dirt, system debris or water.) Or been overheated there no real reason to change it. It doesn't experience the same demands as engine oil and isn't subject to combustion gasses or the high temps. Bright and clear leave it be imo.What’s the manual say ?

I’ll check the manual tomorrowWhat’s the manual say ? My Honda said 20 hours and to use 10-30 oil . I put synthetic in it . I just did the yearly oil change a few weeks ago .

As many times as I've seen junk (swarf) come out of those engines on the first oil change, I change it the first time, after a couple hours. You don't really believe they have "break in oil" in them, do you?I’ll check the manual tomorrow
There should be a fine screen pre pump and the filters are usually on the return side. Idea is if anything craps out it will be caught before the tank and not risk starving the pump of fluid, which will cause issues with the pump.I’ll check the manual tomorrow
Now you got me thinking I should install a filter to protect my new pump.
Hmmmm
It came empty, I put the first oil in itAs many times as I've seen junk (swarf) come out of those engines on the first oil change, I change it the first time, after a couple hours. You don't really believe they have "break in oil" in them, do you?
Like you said, oil is cheeeep!

It was, just not as tender as I prefer. I think where a lot of people go wrong is in thinking that it's wild game so they have to make sure it's well done. That's where ducks and geese get the reputation of being "tough and gamey". As long as it's treated like the piece of red meat that it is and you make sure that it's still nice and pink on the inside, I find it quite enjoyable.
Amen to both of those comments.Sounds a lot like venison! The mistake most folks make is over cooking it!
