Think gear oil. Like for a differential. 80w-90 or even 75w-90 will be fine. You can get it pretty much anywhere. Walmart, auto parts stores, etc.

I’m sure that stuff you posted above would be fine too.

I’d those are ok, I’m good then. I also have some hypoid oil, bought it in 1997, unopened.

This is what I use on my Udor gear box, Works perfect!

Same :+1:

Did you guys recognize the gearbox oil being really airated? @Chesebro

I am a bit over the halfway mark, so ill remove a bit and recheck. I’m really happy I got it.

A little over the red dot on the sight glass is no big deal, I’d leave it if it’s not too over filled…

Well, I guess I never really figured it out… can you spot the big FAIL I made???

What happened?

Lets see if anyone notices yet. I knew this, talked about it before, thats what makes it so bad.

I see an oily mess, did you blow the ring piece lol. Never over fill

No, that was spillage mixed with rain. The pics are of diff time periods tho.

Dunno what im looking for but then again i dont know that much about Pwer pumps

Well I see a couple things wrong, 1 being a Briggs and the other being your plumbing

Yes and no, the plumbing is temporary. And that briggs is a 420cc beast. Its the 2100.
But no on the reason for the post. I have been running the pump backwards.

Why are you running it backwards?

I cant really say I noiced anything out of the ordinary, except maybe a slight difficulty when priming.

I never noticed i was running it backward till now. I’m gonna have to disassemble it at both inputs rotate it, or use a left-hand pump.
