    John I argued the same thing it has to do with expansion I am not the only person to have this happen . Norm Drazy is the one who could explain it the best.

    You want to use a 2 stroke synthetic, or the lightest synthetic you can find. I spoke to PSI about the overfilling and the psynopsis is this; if you overfill the blower it basically turns into an oil pump. With the increased heat you can even destroy the rotors and the case. I'm sure Mr. Drazy could explain it better as Mike stated....I just don't know if any of us could understand it.
