Use a fairly light oil. 3 in 1 is fine but may disappear fairly quickly.
ATF is the most commonly used oil in the dashpots. Better than the
usually manufacturers prescribed engine oil, which is to heavy. There is
a special oil for these carbs but I cannot remember type or name as it
is not generally used.
