what oil

Hi Lud, what oil to use? Well that depends on you really - do you change your engine oil regularly ie every 6 month or 5000 mls (whichever is the sooner) for example? If you do, semi-synth is perfectly OK imo.

The single best piece of advice I can give you is to use good quality oil of the correct viscosity and change it often. Keep your engine internals clean and they will last.

Always use Millers ZSS 10w40 (semi-synth) in my bikes. Opie are not always the cheapest, but it's usually delivered next morning, before I go to work.

I've also got an America but I use a variety of oils. I use sunflower for frying chips and general frying eg fish. I use olive oil for salad dressings and sometimes for frying. I use sesame oil as an additive to sunflower oil for stir fries. I always keep some rapeseed oil in as I love the colour. I also flavour olive oil with various things, so I have small bottles of olive oil with chillies, tarragon and garlic, just to add extra flavour to dishes or salads. Hope this helps.

 

I'm usually dressed by that time of day. Maybe eat breakfast naked.
