951 DI Oil Consumption

[daniel12]

What is a normal amount of oil for my 951 DI’s to use? I believe that my machines are consuming oil way too fast and the spark plugs are wet.

Also getting a misfire every so often. I have some new plugs on order. Will replace them and see if the issue persists

Will it harm the machine to be using more oil than needed? How do I correct this issue?

It won’t hurt anything but you need to check the oil pump alignment on the front engine cover. There are two lines that should be inline.
You should get at least 6 tanks of fuel to one oil.

Thank you. I will do some investigating and see what I find
