Ok, so I went out and purchased some SAE 30 oil for the gear box only only to return home and realise that I've been given SAE 30 4 stroke. I've got a Vespa px 125 2001. Is this going to useable? If there is even a slight chance of problems for the sake of 4 quid and a couple of days wait I'm more than happy to order some Rock Oil online. Cheers C ?

Cheers H,
I know we have the good old standard B & Q nearby i'll check them out, if not i'll probably just opt for the recommended Rock Oil stuff. I'm just being impatient as its been leaking gear oil for a while and i'm panicking about the Southport weekender next weekend. I've just also bought a new gasket/seal for the selector box so heres hoping i'm correct with my leak prediction!
Thanks again,
C.
