Put gas into the oil resevoir by mistake 1984 Spree

Post by petert »

How do I drain the oil that is now mixed with gas in the oil reservoir. I am not a handy person, so please keep it simply. Thanks. Peter

Remove side plastic
Follow hose from oil tank to the oil pump
Remove hose from the oil pump (at the engine)
Drain the oil tank
Let the oil tank air out.
If it was not ran with gas in the oil tank reassemble and add 2 stroke injection oil
If it WAS ran remove the oil pump drain and bleed it completely

Thank you so much. With these instructions, I might even score some points with my wife who is the actual (temporarily unhappy) owner!
