I wouldn't say the Lucas product wouldn't work, I personally wouldn't use a TCW-3 oil in this application.
A TCW-3 oil is a good oil for a fishing motor, steady state operation low RPM's.
It is very unfortunate that the agent, just because he is the agent can screw the retail customer.
I would think for the price/gallon he is asking, you can buy it in the States and get it shipped via UPS or DHL and still come out ahead.

Ken,
I had considered that, But either DHL nor another courier company will ship oil by air frieght. So I have to choose from what I find. Now I see if I can find in the UK.
Thanks

I have shipped suspension oils to England and Italy via UPS, no problem. Alittle pricey but they shipped it.
