Post subject: | GDSD Pressure Lubricator Replacement |
Bought an '07 GDSD a couple weeks ago. The cap of the pressure lubricator is cracked on top. I have ordered a new unit from Go Devil and it should arrive late this week. Ordered the entire lubricator--not just the cap. I need any advice you may have on installation. I figure it's not overly complicated but if there is anything I should know, please inform me. This is the first mud motor I have owned. |

nope, just unscrew the old one and install the new one. fill zerk on shaft, NOT the one on the lubricator, until it fills up. run the motor for a few minutes and see if the level drops, if it doesnt your good to go. |

Ok, thanks. But why is there a zerk on the pressure lubricator if you aren't supposed to use it? What is the proper application to use the zerk on the lubricator? |

thats for when its used in another application. thats not a gd part, its used on a buncha other stuff. if you just greased the lubricator, theres no way to know for sure its spreading the grease all throughout the shaft |

And make sure you put a little teflon tape on the threads when installing. |
