I am going to be refurbishing my 2 leading shoe Eldo forks over the next
few days. Will be dismantling them and replacing seals & o-rings. Two
questions.
1. Since I don't have the tool for dismantling the chrome spring housing
from the lower leg, does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this?
2. My Premier Motor Corporation manual says to replenish the fork oil
with .160 liters or 5.4 oz of Shell Tellux 33 oil. Since that means
nothing to me, any suggestions on what weight fork oil is correct?

Any other words of wisdom?
Thanks,
D.J.
