I take it you mean gear box oil? also if you have just got the engine when was it last serviced and if you are going on the sea do you have an auxiliary engine.

Hi
your service would cost £156 inc VAT - 10% for being a full member on here
FYI
all our pricing is now on our website under services and also says what we do for the money.

you can either bring her to us or we can come to you.
