CAUTION:Be sure to use motor oils that do not contain anti-fric-
tion modifiers. Passenger car motor oils (often labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II”) contain anti-friction addi-
tives which will cause clutch and/or starter clutch slip-
page, resulting in reduced component life and poor
engine performance.
