RE: YS 170 DZ CDI

I agree with bjr_93tz, 20% oil even low viscosity type seems to be too much for the engine to handle. I had the similar symptoms as Steve describes using 20% oil, reduced to 12% and later to 10% without any problems.Assuming you are running a“true” CDI with low oil parts.I think even lower oil content is possible, although I have seen reports that the pump wears more quickly.At 10% I have not noticed any reduced performance of the pump.
