I just used the grease provided in the rebuild kit. I have a video on how to rebuild the calipers.

So you're saying that oil intrusion into the spark tube well is due to the the connection of the spark plug tube with the head and not a faiied spark plug tube gasket? That is interesting and I find it difficult to believe. I thought the spark plug tubes are installed into the head with a...

Oil leaks can be fixed. If you clog up oil passageways and starve parts of your engine of lubrication, now you're talking an engine replacement. These engines are very good. If you're still using 0w-20 oil, I suggest switching to a 5w-30. From what I understand, the oil spec for this engine...

Check to see if your differential breather is working. A clogged breather will cause gear oil to push past the axle seals.

Here's Part 2.
