colly Posted October 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 im going to try the 80w why does thay stop your clucth dragging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manz Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 It cures clutch drag mainly because of it's thinner. Plates dont stick together. I've heard rumors of fibreplate swelling when using synthetic oils, but im not sure on that one. Im running ELF HTX 740 gearbox oil in my mont and rev3. It's thinner than hydraulic oil, even at room temperature. Costs quite abit, but runs _really_ nice.. Br, Robin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
