is this gear oil resistant? I was thinking about using it as a gasket on a larger gearbox.

It is foam tape so I would think it is too porous to be an effective gasket.

the oil that is shipped in with the air compressor is hydraulic oil,it's expensive $. it is also used in hydraulic jacks and the hyraulics in backhoes,not to be subsituted with transmission oil,or brake fluid. 01/31/2015

"If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it" ... Nowhere in the automotive world does this phrase apply more than it does in pertaining to automatic transmission additives. If you're transmission is wearing out/slipping, then you have nothing to lose, but if it's working good, leave it alone. The only maintenance you should ever do is change the fluid and filter with the exact type recommended by the manufacturer. I've seen additives greatly improve a transmission, and just as often, I've seen them cause all kinds of problems.

Given the environment that it lives, oil should prevent any rust issues from occurring on the valve lever as the body is brass. I've never had a problem with corrosion or any issue at all.

Absolutely use the oil gas mix. failure may destroy your engine I use 91 octane

It your vehicle requires an oil that is 75-90 it would work perfect. I used it on my transmission gear box for a smart car and it works just fine

I do not believe it should be used on motorcycles with Wet clutches. Wet clutch oils have special friction modifiers to help them grab and yet not to destroy the paper on the clutch friction plates. It's not worth risking the money. I won't put it in my Suzuki GSX-R.Thanks for all the input below gentlemen. After the many responses below I'll give this oil another chance Now that I've got a all new clutch. It sounds like it may have just been age/wear then a real issue based on all the positive responses from others. Thank you all.

I can shift threw all my gears , I have a 21 speeds and use them all on my Bianchi an to use my high gear there has to be very little resistance , when I received mine last year it was a pleasant surise how well it was made , I used it to recover from a fall on my bike and broke my leg and dislocated my hip , this winter just to stay in top shape . the price was right to

Look elsewhere! I'd consider a diff cover with integrated cooling fins first. Next, although much more spendy, would be a 12v pump feeding the gear lune through a small radiator with a fan similar to those used as add-on transmission coolers for towing. The viscosity of gear lube might be a bit high for the "average" 12v pump, though.

theoretically you could use this to pressurize a sealed jug to expel oil through a hose. Think reverse brake bleed. However, given finding a suitable jug to withstand pressure, relatively light duty of the pump, and fabrication, chances would be 50/50 optimistically. Some gear oil jugs come with hand pumps that work well as I suspect you are aware. I do know that large oil syringes exist but the one I have called a "mix mizer" would be too slow and tedious to use for the amount and thickness of gear oil necessary for a differential service. Would be an interesting experiment though.

I got mine to use as the transmission cooler and it does great. Don't know if that would be good for engine oil as it is a thicker consistancy.

I think you can use any fluid. The box doesn't say anything about what kind of fluid you can use or can't use. I used it with gear oil.

I repaired a wet washer fluid reservoir, and refilled the tank five minutes after the bond set, it has not leaked since. I believe it would cure and withstand relatively well. Also, the key portion of an ignition key/key fob combo broke off for my Ram. I glued the key insert back into the FOB and have used it to start the truck numerous times every day, so it withstands torque very well.

WD40 is not a good solution for any mechanical parts as it is NOT a lubricant. It will eventually gum up and cause even more issues. Use a good 3 in 1 oil and you'll be golden.

This is a very heavy duty lubricant. It has modifiers to prevent metal to metal contact, especially during racing applications or off road. I go 30K miles before a change. But this is a totally synthetic fluid and it could go up to 75K in an axle.(more frequent if running through deep water!) I use this in the transmission of my Harley and it quiets everything down, easier shifting. A friend that drag races Harley's turned me on to this some years ago. Not sure if this lubricant can handle posi-traction units. It may be too slippery(read, no friction additives for the clutches) Always refer to your owners manual for the proper viscosity fluid. My 2013 Ford uses trans fluid in both axles and transfer case. Go to Red Line's website for further technical specifications. Good luck.

From my understanding this brand of full synthetic is great for a slipper clutch. If you are unsure just do come online research but I personal feel my bike is running better since I added this oil.

I used it in jeep oil, transmission. Also in motor cycle oil. So far, so good. Was told it was useful in All types of petroleum based fluids.
