monty Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I either collect @ a show (Silverstone Classic or Kop Hill) or order from Opie Oils or Classic Oils who usually are much cheaper than £10.20. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

McMuttley Posted November 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 but even if I drain my engine as best I can, inevitably there would be a a meaningful amount of the Penrite 20W-60 mixing in with the new 20W-50 , is that acceptable ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D Murton Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Well you could use a flushing oil but then could you get all that out? I really cannot believe it makes that much difference as long as you are not mixing straight mineral with synthetic. Over a period of time the properties of the oil probably change considerably anyway. Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stillp Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 i did once drive a Singer I once had the misfortune to crash my college minibus while carrying the students badminton team. The police attended (they were in the pub outside which I'd pranged) and demanded the name and occupation of all passengers. All went well until they came to Iqbal Singh, who didn't speak English very well: "Name and occupation?" - "I Singh" - "OK, you're a singer. Name?" Pete Quote Link to post Share on other sites
