Yong Heng Oil Sight Glass Threads?
- Thread starter bfloyd1095
- Start date
on this particular compressor (i have 2) i had initially run Royal Purple for about 1.5 hours total run time, which in turn blackened the hell out of EVERYTHING , after a thorough cleaning and Many flushes with high dollar Nuvair 751 i finally got clean. clear oil. Unfortunately, the Lense of the sight glass was a mess, and i added insult to injury by trying brake kleen on it..
bottom line its done..
I have been just swapping the good clear one from compressor to compressor after oil changes and routine maintenance, which is getting old...

Try Mobil Rarus 427. No such issues. I have never ran hydraulic fluid as manufacture suggest nor expensive oils as they are not needed. Worth a try …..

I appreciate the info, it was a toss up between the Mobil and the Nuvair 751 at the time, my buddies all ran the Nuvair so i had 1st hand experiences .
Been Very happy with it, i buy it by the gallon now and that lasts me about a year between the 2 compressors.. They get ALOT of use

I think i may have found hem.
These show to be a 24mm hex, which is the size of the socket needed to remove sight glass.
I measured the the O.D. of the threads as best i could with what i have here at the house for calipers and it looks to be 22mm ish..
I bought these for 10.00 as a best offer deal from china, 5pcs. so i will have spares.. Lol
I'll let ya'll know how it works out.

I had the same issue with mine. Started with Royal Purple and it wasn't very long before it was difficult to see the oil level. I used denatured alcohol to clean mine. Worked well.
