Dunno, but after washing off the petrol one lubes up with dedicated lube afterwards. |
And if the dedicated lube can't get into the journals? |
Then I'm going to have to google what journals are and get back to you! |

Never use water on a chain.
I'm sure Petrol is better, but I have always used White Spirit. _________________ John McClelland's victory in the motor paced event with Derek Marloe on the derny was a thing of beauty (Oldmanof) |
