Shell Rotella DD+40

Post by kanonkopdrinker »

Just to advise all members that the last of the club's stock of Rotella was sold yesterday - (and is now on its way to Portugal).

I will order another 50 gallon drum of Shell to replace it, but in the meantime the only oil I have in stock is the Silkolene 2T.

Hi David,

If i'm correct, 50 gallons is 189,5 liters.
On the continent the drums are 200 liter...funny differences...

I think the drums are actually sold as being 209 litres? (which is almost 50 gallons) ...

.... but these are UK gallons (4.546 litres) which are bigger than US gallons (3.785 litres)!!

Confusing, isn't it?

Hi Thanks to David and all club members for making the oil available that went to Portugal to keep the Nortons on the road ...
