Make sure you completely empty the system before as different 2t oils can react and go gloopy,and bleed afterwards ,just a heads up coz the gloop can block it up and kill ya engine

yeah gadge i was very paranoid about that so literally asked around all the local 2t mechanics before i did, and they said it will be fine as its basically the same oil its just if you mix different types and brands together they said and i made sure i ragged her until the auto lube was near enough empty first :)
