Default Cheap Supercharger Oil

Came across this on eBay, I'm pretty sure it would work fine with our supercharger.

Eaton M45 M62 M90 M112 Supercharger Crankcase Oil Fluid - eBay (item 120489406209 end time Mar-30-11 10:07:38 PDT)

There is a thread on here about changing the SC oil.... I believe it is no more than 6oz - 8oz....

I'll check it again and post....

Here is the link to the how to post and the comment from 70GT6 on how much oil was used...

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...tml#post509592

"I filled the 6oz oil can twice (not full) and did not need the complete second can full.
Plus I wasted some oil in the water bottle .
I would guess 1 can will do at least 4 -5 changes."

The only thing here that actually caught my eye was the term "Cheap" and "Supercharger Oil" being used together
Just ading my 2 cents... Now that's cheap.

The guys at airplaneoil.com said they can't ship me Mobil II jet oil to Australia

Maybe I'll just try some cooking oil or something should work just as well

I have 35K on the Aero and I race it some... hence why I am changing mine....

I THINK the service manual says it never needs to be changed..... I'll look it up to confirm...

Yes, it supposedly "lifetime"... just like the transmission fluid.

I need to change mine, but need to find a source here in europe.

Changed my SC oil today with the Mobil jet oil. A half a cup came out and a half a cup I added. And the smell reminds me of being on a farm in a chicken coupe! Nasty!
