I dont think we have a Nikasil issue do we? I know we get some cheapo bunkered fuel from Rotterdam but I dont think we get the high sulphur stuff that caused the problems in the US. Not familiar with your motor but in general you dont get a noise like opening a jar of jam when you take the oil filler cap off. The idle may slow down a tad though. If you are burning it, it will be on the plugs and in the exhaust tail pipe. You think you could get one of those old Colourtune plugs in there-they show green if you are burning oil dont they?Originally Posted by Ferret
