new strut cartridges
so I got new cartridges for my rx7 and when I removed the old ones, there was oil in the tubes. A guy told me that that oil is for heat transfer to the outside of the tube...
any one know what oil this is and how much to put in..
thanks

THANKS THEY ARE AFTERMARKET INSERTS. SO MY NEXT QUESTION IS THAT ON THE FSM THEY SHOW A SEAL OF SOME SORT TO HOLD THE OIL IN. WHEN i USE AN AFTERMARKET INSERT DO i NEED A SEAL OR JUST INSTALL THE NUT ON THE TOP AND TORQUE IT. AND BE DONE WITH IT.
