now they say to put after run oil in the carb opening and the only opening i know of is the one under my airfilter is this the right hole?... I've always had trouble finding the hole....after i do that 4 drops of ARO i read that you pull the pull the pull the pull start or in my case hit the button for a few seconds... is that all i have to do to prevent early engine death?
 
lol, yep that's the right one. Downside with the way they say to do it is that you'll have to take off your air filter. And if you have zip ties holding on the air filter, then you'll have to snip them off.

Personally, when I put after-run oil in my engine, I take the glow plug off and put the oil in through where the glow plug was.
 
Sounds good,
Remove the air filter and put the ARO in the mouth of the carb. You can also remove the glow plug and put a drop or two in the top of the head.

Either way be careful not to get and dirt in the openings. If your engine is dirty when you add ARO it may do more harm than good.

If your paranoid as I am about opening a dirty engine get an injector and use an inch or two of fuel tubing on the end. Remove the fuel line at the carb and inject a few drops from the fuel inlet. make sure the throttle is in full open position.
