Guest Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 It's kind of hard to tell if you are emphasising the type of oil people should be using or if the quantity is critical. What is the problem if either is not followed exactly? I presume there is some history here, if so, what? If I was a few kilos lighter I would like to be flying a Top 80 machine as I think that they are great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle_fester Posted June 5, 2008 Author Share Posted June 5, 2008 Hi I have the earlier model of the top 80 (2001) and mine takes Grease the later models take oil.With regards to how much grease is used Miniplane recommend 150g CASTROL LM GREASE buy from Halfords for about £6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
