Just a thought...
After you have replaced your seal you could always refill it by the drain hole.

How are you intending on getting the seals off without taking the tubes & springs out?

They're not USDs, so just fill them up before you put the top cap back on like any other right way up fork.

i had a look on the top of the fork there is a rubber gromet i removed it but the top looked seald so i take it you have to take the fork off and drain oil from the bottom then replace the seals and fill it from the bottom aswell am i right in saying this any help please

Again, I've never even looked at one up close, but I'd be amazed if it isn't a standard, unscrew the top, pop the spring out, fart around with the damper bolt for 2 hours type fork.

Get the workshop manual from the sticky at the top of the forum. It reckons its in spanish, but you'll get the gist from the pictures.
