Today I went through my 1967 OMC service manual and recorded all the different type of lubricants mentioned.
I think Lee has already Listed these lubricants and their equivelents for today, but I cannot find his list.
So.....does anyone recall what todays equivelants are to the following older lubricants? Some of todays equivalents seem obvious to me but I just want to make sure.
Thanks
Don.
