I guess no-one has used this, but as it meets the spec it should be OK.My Ford stealer only offers 4L cans of Castrol.
I’d then seriously re consider driving from Perth to Melbourne when doing it.

That's a great drive to do once for the adventure.
The reality is that much of it is a very long boring drive through flat scrubby desert. One well known stretch the '90 mile straight' is notable, but there are lots of 89,88,87 etc etc straights as well!
It took me 3 days in an elderly Ford Cortina which I rarely took over 70mph and it's not advisable to drive across the Nullabor Desert or the vast farmlands at night as feral camels tend to settle down on the warm tarmac at night and Kangaroos have a habit of jumping out!
You regularly see massive bloodstains on the road where a Kangaroo has jumped out in front of a roadtrain!
Believe it or not the Western Australia Police patrol with planes to catch people speeding!
Most smart motorways have now activated the cameras and operate a zero tolerance policyI very much doubt it. I know they made a big things about the Derbyshire cameras being turned on all the time (they are the most profitable in the country, apparently), yet I've seen cars going through them at least 20MPH over 70 and no flashes. They also can't do 'zero' tolerance as each car differs and the speedo's aren't reliable enough (they are now, but it still exists). Most forces work to 10% +2MPH, some are 10% +1MPH before they would even consider a prosecution.
Possibly.....but I'd like to know all costs before rather than after.You'll get whatever sh1te the bean counter had the bulk tank filled with, regardless of what it says on the invoice.
The invoice has the oil down as Fuelsaver A1 5/20.......no idea what that is.
I can't prove they have done either. No dipstick to find dirty or clean oil on.
When take the Datsun in for a service I provide the oil and get the oil deducted from the service cost, it might work out more expensive but at least I know what oil is going in.
Essentially I've paid £225 for an oil and filter change.
Soaked the remaining three locking bolts in plus gas and penetrating oil (the best i could) tried to undo but tool kept rolling off. Went to local national tyres explaining problem , initially told couldn't help but had a go when i produced special adapter. He tried but no go,he then tried with nut gun in an attempt to thump it off and managed to shock all three off : I was so chuffed i gave the bloke £20 not bad for 10minutes but worth every penny to me, as could have been very expensivePleased you got it sorted. Much too late to help you now, it has dawned on me exactly what you said; you had the correct removal tool, but it was rolling off the nut and not undoing it This is what would happen if you put the tool on the nut and heaved on one end of a long breaker bar. With a high torque nut gun applying an even torque there is no tendency for the tool to roll off the nut, so off it came.
There was small snow storm yesterday. Omega went like a train through it
