Title: What type of oil for grey motor ? Post by: Sam Muscat on April 19, 2010, 07:55:51 PM Just wondering what grade and brand of oil people are using out there for there grey motor.
I am currently using Valvoline 20/50W or should I be looking at using a straight grade oil, if so what grade and what brand of oil? Thanks, Sam Title: Re: What type of oil for grey motor ?

The oil they reccomend for the grey is called CLASSIC MEDIUM. Gearbox is MAN. GEAR LIGHT.

Or if you are rebuilding a Grey motor and want it to last forever, put a proper flow through oiling system on it. There is alot of work to set it up but when it is done it is well worth it.
