Swepco 201 - not available in my area

[JCFL]

Hello guys,

I have been looking to buy some transmission fluid Swepco 201 for my 1984 911 Carrera, without success. I live in a rural area, without a significant city with 200 miles. I live in New Brunswick, in Eastern Canada. There are no other Porsches in my area.

I found a supplier in Montréal, but the minimum quantity would have lasted me 15 years.

What would be your suggestions as to a transmission fluid, other than Swepco 201. I want to change my fluid as soon as I get the car out of storage, hopefully within 10 days.

Thanks a lot. And thanks to all that contribute to this forum. I learn on it every evening.

Hi,

I remember asking last year, and was told that oil can not be shipped to Canada ? ....

Thanks anyway.

Ah, the government "protecting" us from ourselves. The number one great lie: I am from the government and I am here to help you.

It is a good thing Canada is safe from shipped in oil

And you thought NAFTA worked both ways. No Canada has its own oil and does not want US oil products being exported into Canada(competition you know)

In the 1980's Valvoline GL5 non synthetic was very good and thats what was in most racecars. You could buy it in 5 gal buckets if you need a bunch.
Seems like it would be good oil still.

Hi I bet I am the closest pelicanite to you - just south of the Calais border crossing. I could get a gallon for you and you could come here and we could do the fluid change here. PM if interested
