Hi,

Is it normal to have white residue in oil when starting it after a 6 months storage? Is this humidity or mechanical problem? This looks like milk.

Thank you.

Yes, sorry if my original question wasn't clear. I meant milkshake on the dip stick. The oil itself looks good.

I have the same problem with my blower to, but I think that it is normal.

 have a problem with one of the screws that hold the auger in place, there are four screw two on each side. Last winter I Made sure that the screws were tight but not to tight, I checked the screws today and one of them were stripped out but the other three were fine. I was just wondering if that would be a cause for concern?

Thanks for any in put
