Re: Just for a change....
In the early years I stuck with Syntron X, then went to a fully synth Valvoline, then onto the full synth Castrol Edge. Now, as per the sticker, I'm running the Millers semi but it's tricky to get down here so I might switch back to the Edge. Servicing.....yeah well... when I can afford it or can be...

I used to run them when they were about, but even then they used to start cracking after only 6 months or so, but they were cheap!! A little warning..... I do remember the las...

The heater elbow duct disappeared years ago, I think it was when I took the engine out to do gearbox no2 (about 1994) I figured on having a bit less clutter in the way under the bonnet and never put it back. I've moved house three times since so it...

I still get about 4psi which is enough at the moment as the gearbox/transfer gears sound like they're on their last legs! More whine than all the ...
