[ST] RE: (ST) RE: (ST) 15w oil for RaceTech



Well that does sound like it's what they call "Packing" which is a 
function of too much rebound damping. I assume that the bumps that 
cause this are sharp edged bumps??  Also you mentioned that you have 
.95kg springs, you weigh how much??  And last who did the install of 
the parts?? I understand that if the holes aren't drilled right it 
can cause problems.  But I have trouble believing that the difference 
between 10 wt or12.5 and 15wt is gonna cause this. I would be more 
inclined to believe that it maybe that the emulators need to be at 
less that 2 turns. Since the emulators control to some extent oil 
flow. Also what weight did you have before??
