Does this come with the oil already in it? After those 3 bolts come off, there's no further place to check or add oil.

The old pump that I replaced had to be filled. I filled it with oil but it still didn't work. The new had no place for oil and appears to be sealed. I have run it for 30+ hours and it is still working great. I still question if it could be filled but assume that it doesn't need oil out of the box.

Great purchase! Yes it does. I bought the oil just in case, but don't think I needed it. I topped it off just in case, but I think that hindered the operation. I would suggest using it as it comes, but I don't know how often an oil change is require. I had to buy longer bolts to install, but I got the bolts from lowest for a couple bucks. Just be ready for that.

I know this is an old question but for the sake of others looking at this, THE PUMP IS SEALED and the oil is non serviceable. It is a sealed system, do not add oil. This information comes directly from Briggs and Stratton technical support. I called them, they double checked. Bolt this on and away you go...

Oil is supplied with the fan. There's a oil fill plug on the top,remove the plug and fill.

Sure!! If you order this be sure to open it right away. I ordered two and both of them had a slight oil leak. Still Recommend.

No, it comes without oil. You will have to pick it up at your local auto parts store.

I had a bit of oil on mine and I just burned it off. I think it is there to stop it from rusting while in storage. Hope you like it, I love mine.

No you don't as you have just purchased it. When it's time to clean it after it's first use then you oil it. The oil is bought separately. I recommend that you purchase the maintenance kit and this will have oil included, as for now you don't have to oil it at first installation.

Yes, there should be a couple of screws to remove a plastic cover on the back left. Once removed you can oil the various joints. My owner's manual showed the areas to oil.

When we bought ours, it didn't. We bought a bulk pack of droppers so we could use them with other oils as well.

I did. I put in what I could fit and then the rest when the oil was low enough. I know for sure it can't hurt and it's not that expensive. I bought extra bottles in case I need them but so far I haven't. Hope this helps you. Ami.

Mine was too man. However it works perfect. I know I was thinking someone used and returned it. Not the case to. That oil stinks right. The reason is they put oil in it test it then drain but during shipping it gets upside down. Don't worry just put on level surface and add oil

My pump came with oil. Although it was poorly packaged and if you box was the slightest bit damaged it probably came out of the box. The oil it came with says 10W30 non detergent oil. This is for the pump only.

When I received the tiller there was oil with it. I just had to pour it in.

There's no oil filter, so I would have to say no. I'm still breaking it in (less than 5 hours on it).

It's Been a while, but I don't think Mine came with bolts. It did have gaskets though. I just used different ones.

I had received mine while back but I believe mine came in similar condition. I thought the oil was a protective measure rather than cleaning
