Re: IML: Generator Oil in' 55-'56

Jack, 30 weight is correct for the distributor and both generator oiling points. The oil bath air cleaner uses 50 weight.

What oil is recommended for the generator's on the '55-'56 Imperials? Having changed out the P/S pump on my '56 AGAIN, I see the tiny oil orifice at the rear of the generator near where the P/S coupler is made to the generator shaft spline and cannot find an amount or an oil recommendation in the FSM, only the blow-up of the generator identifying the hole as 'oil'.
