Re: To Amsoil or Not to Amsoil, That is the question


>Installed Trans/ To amsoil or not to Amsoil that is the question. Any
suggestions. I know its' suppose to be great stuff but:
>1. Why won't 80-90 weight be fine if it was years ago.
>2. How much do the cars get driven
>3. I don't want leaks from inside the two trans's. I've never experienced
this before but lately it seems I've heard a lot about it.

1. Transmissions were inexpensive years ago ! Any lubricant will reduce the
rate at which a component wears - Amsoil is at least twice as good so
trannie wears half as fast.
2. Even more important to use Amsoil which has anti-rust additives in the
oil.
3. That's because of the club gift last year ! - or maybe the seals are just
getting old. It happened to me once on a car with a worn transmission before
I started using Amsoil so I don't think that is the issue.

Hope that helps you make the right choice !
I've just ordered $200 worth of Amsoil gear lube and grease for use on my
amphis - and then spent another $150 shipping it all to the UK !
