Anyone know if the oil in a JRSC can be replaced with something equivalent?

 

gm supercharger oil. just go to the dealer its like 7 bux per bottle.

 

hpw do u put it in

 

I think for most Honda setups the charge must be removed to refill. There is a hex refill nut you just add the oil until it reaches the bottom of the threads. But since the SC is mounted side ways (atleast in my B18C setup), it will act like a drain if you open it. So most likely it has to be removed.

 

do u have a ppic of the drain plug

 

the oil that is used in Moss motors AKA jackson racing blowers is actually a Castor Bean Oil, it is a naturally assited product, i would reccomend prdering a service kit from them, otherwise they can never warranty it, or anyone you sell it to

 

you would be looking for a screw that looks SIMILIAR to this. The oil can be picked up locally from a Ford or GM dealer since a lot of their cars use the same SC's.

 

so drain the oil and put it in the same spot

 

Thanks for the info!

thats how I know it as. You can call Magnuson or JR/Moss and ask. But I had a Ford 3.8L V6 SC which used the Eaton M90 SC which is the same design as most of the Honda units. And thats how we changed our SC Fluid. Except the way our SC was mounted we can check and add fluid to the SC with the blower still in the car because the SC was mounted upright. So we'd use a turkey baster to extract the old fluid out the fill hole and then add fresh fluid. Technically, the fluid from what I've heard doesn't really need to changed or what not. If fluid is missing or whatever... you probably got other problems elsewhere.

 

my jrsc is knocking im not losing any boost is my jrsc geting messed up

 

MMMM....not sure. One way to check is to loosen the SC belt & move it back & fourth to see if theres any free play in the pulley. It shouldn't be. If it is, youve got problems.

 

nope there no free play on the pulley

 

hey i have a jrsc on my ls in my eg.. and i hydrolocked the engine..has any 1 had this happen? what happens 2 the sc.. it spins fine and there is no play.. jackson says look 4 chiped teflon.. if its chiped will it be bad 2 put on my b20??

 

the actual oil is caster bean oil. if you can find it thats what JR will sell you.
