well it seams that you can still buy oil branded as ,silkolene,, but the works in belper has long gone and over 90% of silolene oil was reclaimed and re-refined,,
so i dont know where it come,s from now or what it is wether its 100%new or partly reclaimed
there will/must be a monkey somewhere that doe,s know
and how many other old oil company,s can we remember ? ? ?

Dont know if its true but i was informed when i raced landrovers that one of the few pure virgin oils was/is Valvoline racing I was also told thats why Duckhams and others are green because they are not virgin oil and the colour helps disguise this

Used to sprint a Triumph 650 twin on Methanol with R. Straight through pipes too, so not only did it sound good, it smelt even better... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (geddit? )
