Ok, got it. I did change with fresh break in oil new Wix filter need to run it at 80% load.
4 hrs a month good?. I work at a municipality that's what we do with our gensets.

Thank you,
just finished installing the J Deere plus break in oil although mine was 10/40 started unit up got to temperature oil pressure is down around 25 when hot? Your thoughts.

I'm going to change with JD +
Break in for another 90 or so hours.
Thank you,
I received a low our unit 11.8 hours, documented paperwork says the military put 15-40 in unit? As to lower Breakin oil I was going to do a change with the John Deere plus break in oil but my question is why would the documentation paperwork certified and sealed say they put 15-40 in the unit...
