If the puddle gets big then you are loading up your
plugs--it's one drop every minute(small drops too!).
I had a little trouble with mine but they replaced the
part quickly. I did fiddle with some of the hose
lengths and tried to understand as much of the
operation as I could. My hose is on top of the
swingarm and I've been trouble free for a while. The
common vacuum tap is on the right hand side of the
injectors. One of the little elbows fits in the hole
perfectly! I would suspect that Scottoil (or ATF or
chainsaw oil, etc) will work better on grit as the oil
flings off and is non-detergent anyway (so maybe the
dirt flings off first?) Again, @ one drop/minute I'd
be more concerned about the trucker urinals than oil
spray... I've never seen mine get to the tire , but I
never turn left(--it's a Florida thing ask Kevin
Hawkins...)
