Tony B Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I'd have thought a good 20/50 such as Valvoline would do it. That's what i use never any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian McC Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I always use straight SAE30 in mine, again with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Halford's are now doing a synthtic 20/50 for classic vehicles. Strange greeny blue colour, but seems to work ok. I'd still rather use valvoline mineral oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMS Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 good quality 20w/50 classic motor oil works best, such as the comma or morris etc, will help keep good pressure even on very long motor way trips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie The Jeep Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 You're being a bit slow off the mark getting on the road this year aren't you. In a couple of days it will be June already! I've done over 600 miles in Jessie since January, although only four events as things start slowly until May/June. Passed my MOT a couple of days ago, no advisories, so rather relieved! I always get nervous at MOT time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie The Jeep Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 (edited) I'm towing the Jeep down! She's a bit small yet, but next year I'm going to fit a child seat in the Jeep for more local events.

private mw Posted May 28, 2010 Author Share Posted May 28, 2010 wow great stuff , weve been travelling around in renault scenic non olive drab to shows ect but now glad to have the jeep out again , looking forward to W&P ,,:-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie The Jeep Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Lynne is using her own car to go to more local shows with little legs this year, while I go in the Jeep. Next year we hope we can all go together. That will be dependant on a secure fitting of the child seat in the back of the Jeep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
