well, it looks like its eaten over 1/2 a quart of oil in about 30 minutes of run time. It was at the F mark on the dipstick when i first started it after all the work, now its down to halfway between the F and Add mark. It still smokes like a banshee and the MOP seems ok, the lever moves freely and all. the J-yard MOP was frozen and missing the lines and injectors so i didn't get it. It was also idling up and down between 1000 and 1500 before i turned it off. smoke got worse with rpms as well
is this probably a case of bad oil seals then?

anyways, i'd like to see if its actually the MOP before committing to a rebuild. Does anyone have a known good mechanical MOP with lines for sale? |

I might i will have to check tomorrow or saturday, wait, cant he just disconnect the rod for the pump and add some oil to the tank to premix and run without it to see if it stops smoking as bad?? MAKE sure you premix before running though
