I've never seen one taken apart nor can I find any pics / exploded diagrams. Are they rebuildable by manufacturer only ? Canton offers a rebuild service.


Morosos are easy to service. A large snap ring pliers is needed. I serviced/inspected mine every off season. They will collect trash.

Refill with clean oil, install, charge to prelube the engine on start up. Reset preload and go,


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

And to think, all these years, we filled the tank full of 4 tubes of valve lapping compound, couple quarts of oil, with a manual ball valve, that the driver could open up in the claiming area, after someone claimed our motor! But that was IMCA Racing. LOL. Was sure and eye opener the next day during hot laps!
