I just scored a free Marzocchi XC 500 to put on my winter beater. The seals are still good and it still holds air. It's been about 8 years since I've worked on one of these or anything like it (XC 600/700, XCR, XC 51). Does anyone out there happen to know what the stock oil height was for these things? I'm pretty sure they used 20 weight oil, but I really have no recollection of what the oil height I supposed to be. I'd rather not figure it out by trail and error, so if anyone knows, drop me a line.
