Hi Sejenssen
Gaspar dose not recommend 2T oil in fact recommends not to use it as it gums up the bearings once cold making it hard to start on the next attempt.
You may well want to flush the fuel system through first to clear the pump wile disconnected from the turbine with fresh fuel and his recommended oil.
Then warm up the turbine itself to loosen the bearings before its first start useing that new fuel oil mix with a freshly charged battery pack .
Hope it all goes well.
