Isaac Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 you dont want the carbon fluid, you want it packed. the GFO can be either, but tumbling is best. watch the BRS vid above, as well as this one: most the vids in the "52 weeks" series are pretty good.

Dan H Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 You learn something new every day. I didn't realize it should just softly tumble in the chamber otherwise it will grind itself apart. That might explain why mine has been turning to a GFO brick after 2 weeks. I guess I'll throttle it down and see if that makes it last longer. BRS to save the day!
