Cool Power

[Wayne Galligan]

MessageLee, 

There has been discussion after discussion on this subject.  I am sure there are variances for every application and setup.  

I have been storing mine lately nose up and making sure the carb barrel is closed so as to not let moisture collect in the inlet to the crank.  I had an engine one time that was taken out of the airplane an left on the bench for about 2 months and the carb was open.  The crank was rusted at the opening of the inlet and the sleeve got rusty not to mention the bearing race.  Sealing them up by closing the barrel completely seems to be a logical thing to do.

  When we were selling engines I tested several of the "major brands" of fuel in OS and Webra 2 strokes.  Bottom line: if you expect decent life out of the rear bearing use after run oil.  I'll add: there were some guys who told me of good service without after-run oil...but, I was never able to duplicate those results.

    I received my first batch of Cool Power with the new label on it.
    This label says in bold letters,"DO NOT USE AFTER RUN OILS".

    Any comments on this??
