Fox--
   Although some maintain that one steam oil is as good as another,
regardless of color, if the viscosity is correct, I understand what you are
saying.  I have the dark molasses steam oil from SSSM, but I also have the
lighter (color) variety.  I bought some of it from Diamond Enterprises, the
folks from whom I bought my Mamod.  The number that I have is
1-800-481-1353, and what you are going to get is a very small bottle (30
ccms) for about $5.00.  It is accessory number Z 83.  The label on the
bottle will be Wilesco, and it is the steam oil that they sell for the Mamod
and the Wilesco "toy" steam engines.  I have also bought a 500 ml bottle
direct from Brandbright, Ltd, which they list as their "Thick Steam Oil,"
Part No. OIL4.  At the time that I bought it the price was $6.38 at the
exchange rate at that time.  I can not give you the shipping because it was
with an order for other parts. The 'phone number on their stationery is
01263 588755, and don't forget the time difference between where you are and
the UK.
