Your poll is including Comma Classic and Comma Sonic as the same oil and it is different, like I said earlier...........

What you said earlier, so you misread it again then? Its only grouped as a common pair from the same manufacturer. So nothing for you to fall out about. If you use either of those two you tick the box

LOL falling out, just pointing out as seems a common mistake on threads I've read where people think there the same. IMHO a point worth making......

I use Millers 20w50 classic mini oil and when cold on idle its about 70lbs and at idle when warm its about 45lbs. Not sure how accurate my pressure gauge is but there you go :P

I use Millers Mini stuff. I've used both Halfords and Castrol 20/50 oils and found that after about 2000 miles there is a significant drop in oil pressure, even when cold, so needs changing more frequently.
