I have just got the mini-Gaz in my post-box from Latvia.

HI Donovan, As far as I know, there was no issue of a lube chart for a GPA. Just the pages in the MM TM-10-1263 page 13 to 20 incl. The US-Army sure had plans for that issue but the GPA-production was "unforeseen" cut off. This soon after ( we know now !) negative feed-backs from the users...

Hello Bob, When the piston oil rings are in a very bad condition oil comes on the cylinder top during every crank/start procedure. It is possible that the piston is pressing a little oil in the cooling system during the strokes when the head gasket is in bad condition. Your first mail says that is w...
