Oh don't be so theatrical Mr M and take a few minutes break from
watching your revered collection of "On the buses" episodes.

I'd think the Morris's oil in the blue & yellow tins from all good
chandleries is the lube, straight SAE 30 IIRC. No idea about filters -
don't use the things. In my PRM gearbox I use a standard light
multigrade but can't remember the detail - it's all on the boat.
A call to that Sleeman & Hawken outfit in Teignmouth 01626 778266
should get a part number. Or Peter Thompson's Marine Engine Services
in Uxbridge 01895 236246, the other one that Terry S mentioned recently.
