Yep... I have not figured out how to use the search engine on this forum effectively either. But OK... Here is my comment... Again... Ha
For cleaning, ATF and for lube, regular doses of 5W-30. My chain gets dirty often on the roads I ride and a quick saturation of ATF gets old oil and dirt off as well as a little lube. Then I go to 5W-30. Sure the 5W-30 oil attracts dirt but then so do the others so really my biggest work horse in this match is the ATF.
Also... I need to put in a big kick for Chain Saw Oil, or Chain Saw oil with ATF mix. I especially like Chain Saw oil if things are going ta get wet. Also note that I have not tried Gear Oil... Yet!
