I'll pour a couple of bottles in the ocean here and you can decant the slick when it gets over to you. :rofl2:

Good Oil👍We use Gulf at work, never been a problem. I use 3000 in both cars, bike and lawnmower. Best gearchange for 14, have posted opinion before. I tested lots for old Org.experiment. Cheapest and best.

I gave a bottle to my guy to do the service
He rang me and said... but this is car oil I can't use this

He did ... and yes... shift does seem smoother for the 20km I've been able to ride it since

Best oil I've used in the '14, and I usually only ever use penrite in all my other cars.

Bought 2 today, same price as we buy bulk. I mainly wanted the 5 litre containers, bit of home storage. They even chucked in a 500 ml measuring jar. To top it off, bloke outside couldnt get his car door to close. Sorted that, said ill buy you a 6 pack of your beer, came back with a carton. Must have more trips to Supercheap Autos. Certainly made my day. 👍

Bought two 5l packs 10W40 as well today, no measuring cup though (probably using them on the east coast for covid tests).  Plus I had to buy my own beer.  Must be doing something wrong there me thinks....I did get brownie points for buying the good lady wife her favourite cider, and I helped my neighbour out by lending him some tools
