I have the above engine with only about 300 hours. It's had good care and annual oil changes, only being used about 25 or 30 hours per year. It starts and runs like a champ. No visible oil leaks and although I can't see the exhaust from the operators seat, doesn't seem to smoke. It takes probably a pint of oil in a couple of hours or less.
Is there a breather clogging issue or some such that is the Achilles heel of this engine?
Thanks for any experience that you might be able to share.
