Club 80-90 Forums

Sorry to open a can of worms but what oil do people recommend? 1.9 DG petrol. ( new to t 25 ownership used to have a T2 which I ran on straight 30) just want to use the best oil.

Thanks.

Use what the manufacturer recommends.
Lots of information in the wiki

Any decent multigrade Rob...no need for special oils just a good brand.

Cheers people,

Just wondered if it should be a 15/50 mineral oil only.

Personal choice mate
I use a 20w/50 mineral because I prefer it to synthetic.

Thanks everyone, have decided to go with 15/50 ordered some Morris's 15/50 Golden film. Have used their oils before ( straight 30) in my old type 2 always seemed good. Used to use that green Halfords 20/50 in my old Triumph Spitfire which also seemed to stay nice and clean for for a good while.
