Sae 75w90 gl4 or equivalent yellow metal safe oil in the gearbox
1.5l I think


Sae 75w90 gl5 in the transfer box or equivelent hypoid gear oil.
1.7l I think

The weights don't really need to be those exact ones say 80w90 etc will be fine, the main thing is that you use GL4 or a yellow metal safe oil in the grarbox.

I should probably change the oil on mine - although by now, I'm sure everything is being "lubricated" by a thick muddy mess...

I have no idea how many times the oil has been changed since 86. Probably zero...
