Default RE: 2T oil for Jetcat turbines ?


ORIGINAL: olnico

Absolutely right. You will void the warranty and place the rear bearing in a very difficult situation. Jetcat engines are designed to run on turbine oil and nothing else.
Thanks Olnico.... but what is so different with Jetcat that you can't use 2T oils while everybody else can ? Is it that Jetcat has bigger tolerances and that's why it needs a bigger % of oil ? Been running Jetcentral turbines for years at 2.5% with no problem so don't really understand the logic of 5%.

I have three (3) new Jetcat turbines now and I wouldn't mine to run them similarly to the Jetcentral (and not to say also in a cheaper way..).
