05.Banshee.SE Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 My local mechanic gave me GearSaver Tranny Fluid 80W....what do you guys usually run for oil? I probably should have asked before I bought anything. I live in Florida, and the temperature doesn't change much so "winter" thickness oil is not for me. Thanks fellas.

If I remember correctly I have ran both the 80w and 85w gear saver.. Havn't had a problem at all.. Seems to be pretty good stuff..

Dick Wheels Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 I personally like the gear saver. I have been running it in my suzuki for awhile and never had an issue with it. Its been around forever to. Plus its easy to see if you have a leak cause its bright red Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbooker82 Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Just make sure when you buy it your getting a straigh weight oil. 75w, 80w or 85w Bel Ray has a 80w-90 gear saver too. It is a hypoid gear oil made for differentails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
