Title: Sorry for repeat quests. Tranny oil
Post by: ZekeD on November 02, 2014, 07:14:41 PM

Guys I forgot what the non brass eating oil is for the transmission....    GL1. Or GL5???


Or am I totally off of base?

As always thanks for the support.

Zeke. 
Ps I couldn't get search to work at all.

GL-1 or GL-4...the GL-5 is supposed to be the brass eater....

I think I'll try GL-1 for the next change...at least here(from Napa) it is less than half the price of GL-4

Thanks!   If I had made a guess it woulda been GL-1.       Hope we are right!

Regards
Zeke

Yep, GL-1 is what I use for my tranny/trans case.  The local NAPA was more than happy to start keeping 3-5 gallons on hand for me when I need it.  If you need the NAPA part numbe let me know.
