Whatever they could buy for no more than a quid a litre.

I remember years ago phoning round for some Linn oil. A HiFi store said they
had some and sent it to me FOC. Never did find out how much it would cost or
what it was made of. It's still in there now - haven't bothered since as it
don't get used much theses days. I think I might just do a service using an
ear bud remove the old oil and replace it with olive oil - and I'll let you
all know if it's still works in 6 months time:-)

I think that this might be unwise. I have done that (Extra virgin, it
was all I had available) to my rega. I suspect some biological process
has increased the viscosity.
