where do you buy parafin from these days?

Jimbob

5 litres of parafin, often found with the car bits in a 'shell shop'
only a couple of quid

'Dexron 3' is a retro spec for Omega auto's as it was not available back in the 90's.
p.s. every oil change, engine or gearbox is worth it  :y :y :y

Did mine recently. Both sumps and filter change used about 7 litre's,
although I think I swallowed at least one, and if you have a nice drive
do it elsewhere. Gasket stuck partly to gearbox partly to sump when
lowering it, messy.

I used a big plastic gardening tray from Homebase which is also used for housing plantpots, you need a pretty big one though and it can seem expensive unless you are green fingered.
