X-Man's Hints and Fixes For August 18, 2002: The Super X Engine and Oil
Changes
By: Bobby Baldwin
Because the Excelsior-Henderson
Super X engine cases are sand cast, I recommend changing the oil every
1000-1500 miles for the first 10,000 miles. Doing this will highly
increase engine life. The sand in the cases can escape and get into the
oil. My choice of oil is Mobile One. Using a high quality oil
filter is also very important.
