To the guys that are running SU's or have done so in the past.

What oils have you tried using in the dash pots and what would you recomend?

I have used several different oils I even brought some from the Z store that I'm using currently. But I think its a bit thick so response is a bit slow. I am going to swap back to some motorbike front fork oil that was thinner and see if that is better.

I hope that helps.

Sewing machine oil or 2n1 oil - that is what I have used and it seems to be good and stable.
