    Is the battery 5 amp or 6 amp PP?....I gave up on the petrol hedger and use a battery one now....Works really well but only has the power of a Datsun 180B....So you have to show it some love when you are using it.....:)

    That’s what I read in a previous post by Ian and he recommended 5w50 Mobil 1, I also gave Rocket industries a call this morning and they have 5/w50 redline in stock at $78 per 1 US gallon so either apparently very good product, found a lot less carbon deposits on the tail pipes with Nulon full synth 10w60 and ran beautifully for what it’s worth, it goes without saying Fuchs has been fine, perfectly good oil,after 4000 klm it’s going brown ish, I seem to remember the Nulon looking crystal clear at the half way mark (10,000) but I’ve been advised to change every 5 thou from now on .

    Yeah it's very interesting...The 308 is on 5W50 which for an old engine I would feel more comfortable running 10W60 especially during our hot Sydney summers....The oil pressure gauge also reflects my thoughts , but if 90 % of the wear is on engine start then I guess it's the right oil....

    I think it's 5amp from mammary.

    I also have a compatible whipper snipper and line trimmer as well as a blower/sucker.

    I'm really happy with them. They're all so quiet, apart from the blower.

    Nice Spit I thought they’d be more expensive, you haven’t done bad mate, flying and aiding the sick folk around must have its benefits [emoji12]that’s a fair assortment of previously owned aircraft (plus an exclusive Ferrari), I’ll have a look at your suggestions just in case I win the powerball [emoji16]

    I think we need to ban Adrian before he loses his licence.

    If he is not driving he will be on here ALL the time.

    Adrian, get your owners manual out and look at the oil specification, that's what the engine was designed for.

    You'd run 10W60 if you lived in Dubai, but not Sydney.
