    Hydraulic Oil

    anyone know a cheap source (as opposed to netto ketchup which is cheap sauce and doesn't taste as nice as hydraulic oil) for some of the slippery stuff

    she got a big tank and needs topping up

    25 litre drum or 2 maybe??

    If all else fails, we could always syphon some out of the Millennium bridge I suppose, they'd not miss it

    Cheers, Keith.

        comes in ISO VG 10, 22, 32, 46, 68, & 100 we found it made quite a difference which one we used when messing about with the steering on Shady.
        Cheers, Keith.

              might be a good time to ditch the lot an replace it all maybe??

              whats in the tank is fairly opaque, looks a bit like lentil soup, so maybe past its best anyway

                From the second lentil soup comes into being it is past its best!

                the words "Lentil" and "Soup" go together like "Shoite" and "Sandwich" - And I know which one I'd rather eat - MMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Bread!!!!!!!

                  Cannot remember lol, Bert ended up ditching the pump & tank and bought a new hydraulic helm.

                    I'll not be able to liberate that much from work but I'll ask one of the buyers to get a price for you.

                          orange just wasn't my colour though (and I like eating dead things)

                            Yes I have eaten Lentil Soup at one stage in my life I even cooked brown rice for a lass (once) Never again - will tommy die for you - never never never again - Upstart moment there. Aye pulses do have a role in society but they need to know there place - way below fillet steak and king edward cigars in the scheme of things.
