Gearbox oil.

Hello people, I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I am going to change my gearbox oil over the next couple of days. Could anyone please advice me the correct oil viscosity etc. Also where is the best place to buy the oil any reccomendations?. Many thanks in advance Leigh.

hi leigh

its supposed to be 80w gearoil, but that can make the gearchange notchy
if it does you can thin it down with engine oil

You two have been banned and your posts have been reported to Milton Keynes College. How about using the college computers to do some real work??
