Hi folks,
I've got my parents Spit up on stands in the garage this week. I'm just going over it, and doing some mechanical work for a fathers day effort for my Dad.
I was wondering about doing the gear oil in it, as some of the shifts are getting a bit notchy.
I've got some NAPA (valvoline) GL5 fluid on the shelf, which would work, however, it calls for a GL1-GL4 fluid.
Do the new gear oils contain sulphur. I know its hard on the yellow metals.
My other option is Amsoil GL4, but I'm not sure if this old girl will like the synthetic. I may be able to find some other GL4 at the local tractor supply store.
any thoughts?
thanks,
Ryan
