Just a question. When I used to run equipment with a winch. I do not have a winch on my FJ yet.. I don't plan on getting it stuck..  but anyway. A lube that we would use consisted of diesel fuel and 90 weight gear oil to the fuel was to make the 90w thin enough to penetrate the rope what are your thoughts on this? We never had any problems with it and never broke a wire rope that was used properly. |
I don't see much of a problem blending your own formula and using the Diesel to cut the 90W sounds reasonable ( i have never done this myself )
My recommendation for the chain saw lube is simply because it is a common item that works very well and it can be picked up just about anywhere . The biggest problem with recommending mixtures is without knowing the amount of dilution used you may end up with too thick a coating which will be a dirt magnet for your line.
Cheers.
