Hi Rick, I have a Panther M120 and run it successfully on straight 50 in summer and 40 in winter. Oil grade and consumption is a frequent subject of discussion within the Panther Owners Club. Look here :- http://www.pantherownersclub.com/Panthe ... clubs.html then join the POC, there's a fair few owners in Aus and a fantastic spares scheme. Best, Adam

My mate has a couple of 600 Slopers (1935 and 1950) and they both run on straight 50 all year round. Warm enough over here and in Aus that you don't need to change to 30 or 40 in the winter.
