Blower oil
 
What kind of oil does my Weiland 177 need?

Ted G 08-05-2012 10:58 PM

75W90 gear oil. Brad Penn makes a specific blower oil also.

Haven't you ever changed it????? I used to change mine every 30 or so hours. I used Merc gear lube and my 177 had 500hrs on it and was still going strong when I sold it.

BTW, you have to suck it out of the front and rear. They are separate from each other.
Getting ready for the Shootout?????

Just say the people that normally do it couldnt get to it in time, so you are doing it yourself. :whistle:

Of course not, stupid:party-smiley-004::lolhit::lolhit:

I don't think you put that many hours on it anymore and realistically, the lube is probably fine for 100+ hours.

Don't overfill it either. It should be at the notch on the front dipstick without the dipstick actually being screwed in.
