Gear oil
#23
Yeah, as Rippthrough says, I'd normally only recommend the Total BV stuff... I'm not aware of other oils, but Ripp will know best on that one.

As I understand it's due to phosphor-bronze being used on some components inside them (synchronizers) which some additives will react badly to and damage the synchros... EP additives are usually what f*ck them!

Most people aren't aware of this with the PSA boxes. MA boxes from memory are even worse for not using the correct oil!
