Are ok, you know that too much oil is as bad as no oil???
It has the same results lol....BAN!!!!
If it works fine then that's good, but I would Chang the oil often depending on how much you use it, just a thought

I have a mower with a Honda engine and to check the engine oil you don't screw the stick in. I think it is the same for my Kawi engine (FJ180v).

Yep i think most honda are like that.... the moan i have with this one is there is the top you can rest stick on.. then it drops down and then you turn in to tighten :laughing: oil is guess work!.... the long oil spout narrows quite tight towards the end so stick is grabbing oil and given all kinds of readings... im somewhere in ahappy medium with oil level :confused2:

Yes, oil is a little guess work. My Kawi is very sensitive to any kind of incline. I really have to check it in the garage.
