Does anyone have experience of the UK Company - Millers Oils? They make a first class additive/octane booster to use with lead-free petrol which I use and now I'm thinking of giving their engine and gearbox oils a try. Kind Regards Brian Chase PS.

Hi chaps, Valvoline makes a very good 20/50 Oil. I use it since the late sixties. It's called Valvoline All Climate 20W50 and costs here at the local dealer 30,00 Euros for 5 liters. They eaven supply the 20/50 as Valvoline Racing which is a little bit more expensive. For gearbox and diff I use special oils Miller's from UK, who supplies 20/50 for engines too. Best regards.

Hi Oliver, Many MG T C owners are using 20W50 oil. This is not available now in the normal European shops and super markets. So I am using 15W40 as a running in oil after engine rebuild. But I can not report you any experience so far. If the engine is in good shape I can recommend it. If the wear and tear is too much I may go for next grade.

Why not? Always assuming that you really need hot weather oil.

Jim: 20./50 is just fine for all of these cars in our western climate. Even if the temp gets to 120 degrees. I speak from experience. Cheers: Skip Kelsey............................................................. At 12:40 PM 4/21/2005 -0400, FDShade@aol.com wrote:
