Henry
Thank you for the reply, does the GL number hurt anything? I hear that GL-5 is not good on trans that have brass parts or yellow metal in them, is this correct?

Thank again for all the help

i don't know about that maybe somebody else on here does

uncle henry · Nov 27, 2012

i use one quart of the same stuff in the motor with four quarts of motor oil

fred smith · Nov 27, 2012

That is how I run it in my engine to and seem to run very smooth

That used to be true, but I think the newer GL-5
oils are made to be compatible with the lower numbers and copper or brass.
Hope someone corrects me if I have the wrong information.
