[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 597710, member: 13810"] Hey Al, so it's official then :lol: . Get yourself some new oil as you have no idea what's in there. Something along the lines of Halfords or Comma multigrade 15/40 or similar but it must be mineral and not synthetic for the heat dissipation. Check your oil when cold is best and have it to the top mark on the stick, if you have to top up when warm then maybe a tad less. I get the Halfords stuff when it's on spesh, others get Comma from Wilko, but most think it's the same stuff and I try not to mix oils. If you have a one litre gearbox oil bottle with a pull out top, they're great fir topping up and hiding behind the battery too. The steering is an acquired taste, a bit like caviar :lol: Sounds like your crankcase vent wants a little assistance from what you're saying about the oil splatters on that Polo. But you is home and so is your bus, so well done and welcome. :!: :mrgreen: Ozziedog,,,,,,,, citing innit :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
