Where would be the best place to get a replacement motor for mine? The ex got happy mixing bread dough on a super low speed and burned it up a few years ago. I need to put it back in service.

Put in 10 qts, fire it up, shut it down, let it set for a while, then check it. But at least 10 qts with new oil filter.

According to Pennzoil's advertising and supposed testing, the Platinum may keep your pistons slightly cleaner in the ring area.

Or whitewolf....

So the ATF+4 has less friction modifier than the Dex fluids? I thought it had more. Seeing as some of the universal type fluids can work for both, i cannot see how it would so quickly ruin the transmission as some here are saying. I am not saying i recomend it, but i cannot see how it is so bad...

Agreed. Unless one particular oil does something special for your engine like consistently better fuel economy, etc, then wouldn't make it worth the effort and expense of seeking out an oil like schaeffers. The biggest issue is being able to accurately quantify the improvements that one is...

Yes, if you are paying $7/qt, you are paying too much. Schaeffers is not for everyone. As was explained above, many folks find the minimum $375 for a wholesale order is too much, but it gives you free shipping, which other companies like Amsoil never do. Even so, I find Schaeffers is a fine oil...

Possibly true. Do you at least have a dipstick tube for checking and adding fluid? Our 2001 does not.

Better and more friction modifiers may give the Maxlife (HM ATF) smoother, more controlled shifting than a standard Dex III fluid.

Another poster said his rear main seal leak stopped completely with full syn maxlife, if you can find it. That was vs the oil you are currently using.

Just put the cap on the valve cover. It fits. You'll need a funnel to add oil now.

We were lucky to get six months out of a set of front pads, growing up in Pittsburgh back in the 70's and 80's.

M1 75w-90 LS is not the lube to use in a manual trans with synchronizers. The Redline is the one to use for better shifting and longer syncro life.

Amsoil has a couple different injector oils that you could choose from, their new multi-use injector oil, or their interceptor, which costs more.

After reading about paramotors and paragliding, I would certainly find out exactly what lubricant is needed for that reduction drive or buy the Kluber stuff and have it shipped to you.

Ok, didnt know it was a transaxle/transverse engine setup. So there are three units to service.

If it's AWD, the there should be a transmission, transfercase, front and rear differentials. That's four units to service.

Sounds like an ISO viscosity maybe, which is close to SAE 90 gear oil. You need to know more, like is this gear oil GL-1, GL-4, or what? What type of gears? What is a paramotor?

You can add Lubegard Red to any fluid, but not sure it is really all that helpful unless you are adding it to your final fill (of the drain and refills). Maxlife is probably very similar to Dex VI in viscosity at least. The Supertech Dex VI is most likely a semi-syn base fluid and the Maxlife is...

Carb bowl flooded for sure. Pull of the bowl and check the float and needle and seat for the cause. May have to replace the bowl gasket or o-ring for an engine that old. When you finally get it running right again, might be a good idea to change the oil too. In those flooding situations, the...
