Dont use multigrade,you want straight 140,not sure were you get it down your way though.
John(sos) will post you some,it seems pricey but if your only running a couple of gulls it should last you ages.

I buy sae 140 gear oil from my local farm machinery store.I pay around Â£10 for 5 litres.It is used extensively in farm machinery gearboxes.
