The Auxillary transmission in my old truck calls for SAE90 GL-1 oil. I couldn't find any so I put in SAE50 engine oil which is very close to the same viscosity.
Now the thing leaks out both ends. It did not leak before I changed the oil.
I dunno I can't explain it either. Can I run GL-5 oil in it? I know that some additives in GL-5 are not good for the soft metals but I don't think this trans has any.
It's an old Spicer Brownie with needle bearings and roller bearings.
