seal swelling properties
good afternoon,
many years ago, when I had my first /5, I was following several threads that were dealing with motor oil choices for these fine machines. If I recall correctly, there was mention of a Brand, Spectro, that had properties that are better suited for the aging seals, don't want to call it "swelling" the seals but perhaps might slow leaks. Is it wishful thinking or am I correct in recalling that fact?
I just got another R60/5 and want to change all fluids, after giving it a good bath, and if Spectro indeed can help with minor leaks, I sure would use it.
Thanks in advance, again
HiÂ
not sure about seal swelling stuff after riding my gs for 30 years, of all the oil used vr1 to mobil 1 I settled with castrol gtx 20\50 only fill to 1\2 way up dip stick. If I fill it to the max level seam to drink more oil. cheersÂ
