Default Quick oil question.

Hi had my service done a good few months back now and I had the millers oil from opies put in, just been to check my oil and noticed its nearer the E than the F a d I'm heading out to the ring on Saturday morning. .

So much question is do anywhere like euro car parts sell and decent oil so that I can do a quick change tomorrow evening ??

Thanks Chris

Millers is a good oil & although it's nice to top up with the same it's not vital. As long as you use the same grade & go for a good brand you'll be fine. Most parts factors will stock something suitable.

It's a shame you're so far as I could have let you have a litre or two for topping up.

Glad you sorted it. Always keep a spare 5L, saves any panic. I was going to offer you my 5l of 10 50 Silkolene but I'm miles away & youre OK now.
