I'm trying to breathe some life into a 1992 Dynatech Quantum I've picked up. So I was amazed that upon re-inflating the forks they appeared to hold air! However very sticky and crap rebound. So I've flushed out the old oil, also had the wiper seals out, gave them all a good clean and smear of grease on upper seals and filled back up with 5wt Rockoil approx 35mm from the top on compression, pumped back up and seemed great (for a 25 year old fork).
However after a 10 mile ride, I've found that the rockoil is weeping up past the wiper seals (quite badly) and also have also lost a lot of air. Can anyone give me guidance as to whether this is normal (suspect not) and also any guides to replacing what I presume are lower seals in the legs that are probably shot and where I may source some in the UK?
