Redline MTL http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-1019-red...0w-80-gl4.aspx

this is supposedly perfect gearbox oil for the dc2 box,i just used the honda gb oil i think it came to about £36 and i think using this redline its a bit more expensive.
im not sure on mileage change but i shall find out i think i good routine is between 40-60k but as i said i dont know and shll find out and re post on here.

well has been awhile since i posted anything up but have been doing a few bits in the background been a bit busy!
so i got my new rocker cover through the post and can i just say the rocker cover came out lovely and well packaged i would recomend spooner's productions to anyone thanks again matey. 8) :wink:
my rocker cover and new gasket:

so with getting the new rocker i decided it was time to give the engine bay a real good clean up so i began by buying this:

[b]And at 3.99 i thought it was a bargain i still have just under a half bottle left!
i got some brushes in varying sizes also for all those nook and crannys! what made it harder was when i had the car wax oiled he also did the engine bay and bonnet but the auto glym engine cleaner really did make light work of this.
so here was my bay before i started:
