To Doug from s.d. – re shutdown of 185
by: Mark

It shuts down quickly, no slugging.

But it does it much sooner now.

Thought it may have been low on compressor oil and sure enough it was quite low. Threw a gallon in and it was not enough to show on the sight glass.

Going to get more oil and even though it shuts down fast I WILL check the filter!
