what kind of oil?

What kind of oil is the right one for:

1. the valves on a rotax 582
2. the gearbox on a 582

[Duck Rogers]

The Rotax 2 stroke engines don't have valves but you'll need 2-stroke oil to lubricate the rotary valve shaft which is fed from a seperate container. Use API-TC Classification.

The gearboxes need a good gear oil such as API-GL5 or GL6, SAE 140 EP or 90W - 140 EP. Basically anything over 90 will do.

Thanks, Duck.
