That's why we always used to use 20wt. motor oil for this application -
until we found we could not buy it anywhere any more! So we started using
20wt. fork oil, which we were assured was the same viscosity. It works
great in SU carburetors! Some years ago, I suggested Moss carry it and now
they do. As far as I know, theirs works as well as the stuff we use....
