[QUOTE="Vic Youel, post: 4276, member: 87"] [b]Oil[/b] Just back from a fruitless visit to Halfords and the local Car spares shop. shelves are stacked high with a plethora of modern oils and fluids, very expensive synthetic stuff and with loads of car specific variants. Nothing suitable for me though. Plenty of Morris stuff on their web site but not easy to purchase locally. Therefore I have just used the VMCC site at [url]http://www.vmcc.net/vmccshop/scripts/castrol.asp?cat=11[/url] to purchase some 140 gearbox oil (type D I think the man said when I informed him of the application) plus a few cartons of Spheerol for the gear box. Also some 5w fork oil for the primary chaincase..... hope my clutch likes it. The Castrol man was extremely helpful and efficient. Orders over 30 quid are shipped free. Would be nice for the VOC to get a similar deal (in the UK) .........certainly there is justification for sections to lay in stocks of the right oils for local consumption. Vic [/QUOTE]
