Garth Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Usually run my Sigma on Millers CFS 10w40. Ordered some from OPI oils earlier this week, but it has not arrived! Have already drained my engine in preparation and am at Dunsfold tomorrow! There are no Millers stockists nearby so will have to find something to use if even only for tomorrow.Am assuming as long as I get a similar synthetic 10w40 it will be ok?Thanks in advance.Garth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garth Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Caterham do not appear to have any on their website Alan. 5w50 could be ok me thinks - is it synthetic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garth Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Engine has been reworked to about 200bhp but we'll run in! Everyone appears to have different views! The last people to work on it and set it up on the rolling road recommended Millers CFS!i am fairly confident an equivalent somewhere in the 5 to 10w 40 to 50 will be fine!?
