talk to HDTboy, he's got a couple lurking in his garage.

Failing that, soak the current plates in petrol or brake cleaner and then re-soak them in oil overnight before putting them back in.

Never had a problem with Syth oil in mine, did you use a motorbike or car oil?

any oil syth or mineral car or bike is fine... as long as it doent have extra additives like the castrol magnatech,
generally the cheaper the better,
i worked in the castrol and bp blending plants and the difference between the crappiest and the most expensive oil is a couple of additives and a fancy container, castrol also make oil for kmart :D

Yeah i'd say on time changes are more important than going all out on the particular oil, then again some real benefits can be had in high temperature situations.

My oil boiler just uses some castrol bike oil 10w 40 semi syth i think. Haven't had the clutch give me any problems.

I've got a race clutch coming in a shipment of oil boiler parts coming in the next week, I might sell it off.. or maybe i'll use it. :niceone:
