Problem with my SP

[hornyver]

Hello fellow bikers. Have a few problems with my bike.

 

1) Engine very easily becomes cold. Thus having to pull choke to start bike even if its just 2 - 4 hours before i last rode the bike. Why is this so?

 

2) i changed my EO 2 weeks ago. the EO was greyish milky looking.. something like " ZI MA HU" sesame paste. Why did the oil become that colour? is there anything wrong with my bike internally that i need to go fix?

 

3) Whats the diff between those EO. Eg. 10w30. and so on.

 

Thanks

Sp being a single piston bike is usually cool, wait till u ride something like those 2a bikes then u find that why ur bike is always so hot..

 

Eo over time will change colour very normal

 

different grade bah that one must ask someone more pro lol i dunno much

normally use fully sync EO from motul

1) should be good right? anyway, can say ur coolant is working in tip top condition.

 

2) eo sure will become more dirty and more dirty as u use it. so if change to diff color should be ok. ur eo like this the color i see b4 also, should be ok.

if eo mix wif coolant and after a teh taik session, the colour will be milky white..

i try to simplify the engine oil explanation.

as for engine oil grade, for 2 stroke bike like sp should be using gear oil which hav higher visocity like SAE60/w60. engine oil as in 10w30 is more for 4 stroke..

normally i saw for 4 stroke bike use w40 or w50.. seldom see w30 which normally for car engine..

wad does w40 w50 w30 means? i usually just go to the shop and ask for the middle grade. cause price range from 9$ - 26$. so i get the 13$ 1. is it ok?
