How much Oil do you need for an Oil Change?

Think you need to take time on your jobs

 

Or lay off the weed!

 

There was atime when I was changing oil on bikes/cars every single day, you'd have thought I'd have got good at it.....................but I guess the averages were against me.

 

Yer I think you got too confident.

 

i think the halfrauds classic is 20/50w well at least the tin ive got is dean , green one , works ok ish in my 1600tp , i used ta use morris 30 but listened ta some on here and found it better when i was doing a ton

 

Thanks buddy. Would you go for 20w 50 over 15w 40?

 

Would also like to see what @zed thinks? 15w40 or 20w50?

 

im just happy to keep as much as i can off the drive if you get my drift , betty doesnt like a dirty drive you see

 

This is all new to me. I had no idea the thinner oil you get the more it leaks. My whole engine bay is covered in oil and Im thinking this now is the case.

 

i know they shouldnt leak any dean but all old things are said to dribble a tad id get zed ta take a look if your worried about what you have got if i were you.

The 15w 40 Halford own is £19.99
The 20w 50 Millers (Dosn't appear to be a Halfords own) is £37.99 !

 

Its called halfords classic well the 20/50 ive got is ,its normally on offer too, what baysearcher zed n others says is right it shouldnt really matter you shouldnt have oil all over the place so you may need to look elsewhere ,

 

What one would you recommend? What high street place can you get from?

 

Oil leaks won't be due to 30 grade oil. It'll be the usual things (pushrod tube seals etc)

 

Any 15W40 or 20W50 will do, including stuff from the supermarket.

 

Even

Comma multigrade will do too.
