Just about to order this, Opie Oils seem to recommend 5W-40?

Anyway most seem to be in agreement about the Fuchs 10w-50, Is this the correct one?

I've been using Mobil 0/40 from Matt Lewis on mine for 8 years. No smoke or tapping. 154k. Ł60 for 2x 5ltrs and 1 ltr top up tub. Bargain when you see the prices at Halfords.
