My question is what oil weight would you consider for lubing.

Mineral spirits......sold as paint thinner.....is similar to kero without the smell; works good for cleaning.
WD works good too.
Why would you NOT use the weight and type of oil that is recommended ??
Synthetic 50W90 gear lube is available in quarts and a quart will probably last through 2 or 3 chains. |
Hey Easy Rider, I may have overlooked it in the service/factory manual but I wasn't able to find the recommended oil weight that's why I'm asking you guys. Now you're saying 50W90 gear lube will do it? I was under the impression it was motor oil.
