mjmac Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Hi everyone, i am looking for some advice on gear oil. I am doing a complete oil change on my ROS 125 reduction gear - the manual for this engine suggests that I use SAE 140 gear oil and I cannot find this anywhere in the U.K. Could anybody advise? thanks in advance, Marcus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmac Posted October 17, 2016 Author Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thanks for everybody's input I have contacted Opie Ools today who have been very helpful and have several options for me to try. I have been lookin at the ROS engine manual who recommend using 140 SAE, however, when looking in the PAP manual it recommends using 75W-90 oil. Having looked it appears that SAE 140 is a mineral oil and the 75w-90 is a synthetic oil. I could also get a 75w-140 fully synthetic oil. Could anybody suggest which oil might give the best performance and efficiency? Thanks, mjmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
