    75w-140 instead of 75w-90??

    I was able to find some GL4 amsoil, so I returned the RP, wasn't aware that the tranny mount was different between the 2 trannys, I'll find out tomorrow when my mechanic tries to install it. Which trans mount are you referring to? I just checked on on Nissan FAST program and the front and rear...

    75w-140 instead of 75w-90??

    I have a 90 nissan sentra 4 speed and am currently using amsoil 75w-90 GL-4 gear oil, I am replacing the 4 speed with a brand new 5 speed and picked up some royal purple gear oil today, but it is 75w-140, would this viscosity be ok to use instead of the 75w-90? What effects would the 140 have...

    oil prices related to synthetics?

    Of course the price of crude oil effects the prices of our gas, but if synthetic oil is synthetic why does it seem that as the price of crude oil rises so does the price of synthetic oil??

    2004 nissan sentra

    The newer nissan sentra's use a metric filter, using wix filters as an example my 90 sentra uses a 51361 height-4.067 diameter- 2.960 thread 3/4-16 the 2004 sentra with the 1.8 engine uses a 51365 height-2.577 diameter-2.685 thread 20x1.5mm. I don't own a 2004 sentra but my friend just bought...

    what's up with the newer sentra's using that tiny oil filter and only requiring 2 7/8 quarts of oil?

    got some GC going to try it, Orlando, FL

    the funny thing about it is the noise isn't constant at low rpms's, today after work I stopped at the store and was listening to the engine and there was no noise so I don't know.

    it wasn't green when I first opened the bottle it looked green but it was actually gold, I got it from autozone

    is the silver bottle the blend oil? On their website they show the aqua bottle as high mileage oil, silver as blend, and the light blue looks like it's synthetic, so which would be best to use?

    it may be the filter I don't know, tried to get to the oil filter study page but I guess he changed it and his opinions of the filters are no longer on the site, don't remember what was said about the napa gold filter.

    which havoline oil are you all using? I looked in the local autoparts store and they had like 3 or 4 different havoline oils

    got some GC going to try it, Orlando, FL

    before, I went out to the store, when I first started the car it was quiet, after about 10 minutes when at idle the tapping was back, was thinking that when I first started the car the RPM's were up slightly and it wasn't making noise but when the idle dropped to normal is when I hear the noise...

    got some GC going to try it, Orlando, FL

    repaired the last oil leak I had in the car ( oil leaking thru center of distributor, got a new OEM distributor) and couldn't wait to change the oil and try the GC I bought. Thought I had "green" but after checking the date code (M052166) I guess it's the gold, ( Looking at the oil in the bottle...
