my diff used to drip, its now stopped. Thats definately a bad sign! Trackday monday, and ive only just thought about topping it up. Will 10-40 oil do the trick temporarily, or is that a bad idea?

There's less friction with engine oil so the diff turns easier and lets your engine unleash more raw power but the diff will not last as long. As a temporary measure it might be better than no oil but being thinner it may run out quicker.

what diff is it, mine (ford LSD) used EP (extreme pressure i think)80 or 90 oil.
dunno what putting normal oil in would do.
have fun on monday! where is it?
Chas

god dont let the bikers on here know your leaking oil, they'll have your hands cut off. . . .

a trip down halfords for you i think, its not worth buggering your diff over a bit of oil.

Get some EP90 from your local motor factors tomorrow and stick it in.

didnt think the motor factor would be open tomorrow, if he is i'll get the proper stuff. Was just wondering in case i cant find any!

chaz, monday theres a whole load of us off to teeside autodrome

Halfords (ugh)

wilkinsons sell tjis and are open in sundays; you'll probably find it in tesco too and in pertol stations.

Joel

Let me know if you're stuck. I've got some left from my build and could bring it down to 'Boro.

Mike

well, hopefully ep80w/90 is the right stuff, cos thats what ive got!

Cheers for t'offer mike
