Now, no one really needs a five gallon pail but you will notice it says '75W-80'
One can run 75W-90 weight or you can run GL-5 if you want. I wouldn't.
my only advise would be; don't take advise, follow the specifications of the book in the glove box. |
Actually I thought I was following the OEM specs. Everything I've read (e.g., owners manual, service manual, shop repair manual) says either 75W85 or 75W90 and an API rating of GL-3 or greater for the transmission.
