Re: Changing Oil - Check Out These Washers

Totally agree, these washers are known as "Doughty Washers" in the UK and are the only way of stopping oil leaks from from the oil feed and return unions on my ancient Velocette.

Re: Corroded Bits!

Hi all, newbie here.
I've been using ACF 50 for a couple of years now and found it to be excellent at preventing corrosion (just make sure you take measures to prevent it getting on your brakes and any other things you don't want to lube) Scottoil 365 is OK, but does wash off in the rain.
