Even in Winter (hence the 'W')? Doesn't thicken slightly?
How queer. How funny - peculiar.

Hello All
Thanks for the advice so far.
Overdrive looks to have very little oil in. Cant get any EP90
for about two weeks as funds are low.
Is there anything else i can put in to keep lubricated as a stop
gap. Misty is being used daily at the moment and the overdrive
helps with fuel costs.
Its a stupid question i know
Thanks in advance
Andy
