Thin Redline

I take it Redline are suggesting their standard synthetic is the correct one for the SVX, as opposed to the Hi-temp one which most people here use and rave about? Strange, but standard synthetics are more resistant to breakdown than mineral oils.

Warranty does not bother me, it is on a handshake basis. In fact, when the pump blew last week, he took it back, stripped it, replaced the pump, all at no charge. What I am more interested in is keeping the box alive.

Redline products are sold here in the North of Ireland, different currency, Sterling zone. Sterling is so strong vs Euro, it is prohibitive to have a cup of coffee up there. Redline products are already seeeriously expensive, and with the currency surcharge foggedaboudit

That is why I thought the Chrysler oil to be attractive, higher heat handling, half the price of Redline.

Will keep you posted when I change the oil.
