Ransomes Motor Triple

Enter a word or two to search the forum section and click the Search Forum button.

Hi Everybody,

I'm new to the mower club and am currently restoring a mk1 Motor triple from the late 60's - early 70's. Can anybody tell me what oil to use in the gear box?

Thank you very much - Moggy Mark (Solihull)

"Always use one of the recommended SAE30 oils  for all lubrication points and gearbox"

So a good quality SAE 30 engine oil should be fine.
