$25 for 4 litres of oil and $15 for a filter. I would learn how to do it yourself because a mechanic will charge you $90+ for a 'service'.

Ah Tewawharanuihouse I know the stuff, my flatmates EA81 ate a pack a week when he was commuting to the ski fields back in the day
In other news - the wudfud has real competition down Blenheim Rd now with Aranui's favourite shopping centre having moved into the locale - ECODEPO - I must say I will miss the smell of human excrement as I look for a wheel for a handle for my wheelbarrow this weekend

You can get 4 liters of oil for as little as $16.95 from the wharehouse, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Thanks guys, our mechanic friend said he'd do one for $60 just checking what they cost first.

If you check with the test centre run by CAT in ch ch you will be informed that nearly all mineral engine oils contain around 4% additives. this means 96% mineeral oil. So you can make your own judgement as to which ine to buy.
