I would use a good quality 5W.
Set the level to 100mm measured fron the top of the fork tube with the spring out , damper assembly colapsed and properly bleed of air .

actually 1 more question. when you say measure from the top of the fork, do you mean the inner/bottom or with inner and outer assembled?
