petrol usually damage seals thats the reason you find that if you clean something that is not treated against the corrosiveness of petrol

hence you find some rubber quickly deteriorate when they get contact with petrol


To avoid slug is always best to use the recommanded oil and doing the recommended service intervals

The problem with most African we want shortcuts or we buy things that we can not afford to maintain as per manufacture requirements
