I'm not sure what happened, but there were some answers posted to some of my questions. 1 of which was saying that the answer given by 46u on the diesel oil question was totally wrong. That post has since been deleted (the very next day I believe. Is that common practice here? It's been over a month and I still have not gotten any guidance.

Hello all. Have a few questions about this cy150 I bought last month. Ive been trying to do the pdi and recommended upgrades before breaking it in. So far I have changed the gear oil and engine oil and replaced the draion plugs with magnetic plugs. The oil I put in is Rotella 15-40 Diesel because I saw a youtube vid and thats what they used.
Is it ok to use Diesel Oil?
Changed out the valve stems
Changed out the spark plug boot and plug
Changed the fuel line
Waiting for fuel filter , new clips, and vacuum line. Was told 3 feet was needed, but it looks like there is way more than that. I've got line to the petcock, carb and at least 2 canisters tied to either side of the frame. I also bought a new battery. It's a moto batt that is 12v 9A . I made a mistake when ordering because I got tje old battery model mixed up so this battery is 1/4 inch to tall and the cover doesnt fit over it. My old battery was 12V 7A.
Can I use this battery even though its a 9A?
Do I have to install the cover over the battery or is the floor mat ok or maybe screw a piece of plastic over the battery?
I got a waterproof blade style fuse that says up to 30 A fuse. Is that ok to use?
I couldnt find the airbox near the Cvt, but there is a filter below the seat. It looks like a small ring cake.
Is it recommended that I change that? If so, what is suggested?
Is there anything I missed besides changing the petcock?
Lastly I'd like to install the following items Cigarette lighter/adapter Alarm Stereo System LED light strips(i have 3 meters of cutable RGB 5050 SMD Lights that require 12v and 2 A per meter.
Do I need a fuse between each accessory?
Will my battery even be able to power everything and still perform its usual duties.
Thanks in advance for any and all help, advice, and critique

Should all black rubber hoses be switched out Or just certain ones?
