User questions & answers

Question:	can this be used for a 50 cc scooter transmission fluid? the owners manual says SAE 90 and nothing else
Answer:	I don't think that there would be any problems using it in a lil scooter tranny some folks put it in high powered race cars
Question:	Is this overkill for a jeep xj's diffs? i ask cause it says heavy duty and shows a semi
Answer:	The semi I suspect is for show. I used this on my 3/4 ton Ford F-250 because this specific weight was listed on the line order. I would consult your Jeep manual or is you have upgraded diffs and you heavy wheel I would go for it
Question:	Is this hypoid or non-hypoid
Answer:	This is a hypoid gear oil, its stated on the bottle
Question:	i would like to know if the api is GL
Answer:	"Exceeds API GL-4" does not necessarily mean it's safe for "yellow metals". Valvoline also exceeds GL-4 but doesn't specifically state that it's safe for synchro's. Is this OK for synchro's or not?

User questions & answers

Question:	Would this be good for a 2002 Mitsubishi montero sport transfer case
Answer:	This produce does just how it is advertised. There is a sponge when dipped into the product, is rubbed onto the silver product and then rinsed. I have found no other product that is effective. I guarantee this product.
Question:	Is this synthetic
Answer:	It might... it will depend on how bad the cylinder wall(s) are scored. Something caused the the problem to begin with. That said... you could spend the bucks and give it a try and see if it helps. If not, get the all the cylinders redone (honed and new piston rings) and re-treat the motor for longevity sake. The stuff works.
Question:	Is this good for rear differential
Answer:	Check there Wikipedia page for revitalizant for journal references.
Question:	Is it synthetic ? Would it work in a 06 Chevy 1500 5 speed manual
Answer:	Yes. Pink gel stuck to the bottom of the container when it arrived; had to be scraped out with an awl. I've used this product successfully multiple times, yes it does work - but that congealed element is THE critical element. I had success with putting a pot of water on the stove on medium heat, letting the material soak in hot water for 15m, then shaking it vigorously for a few minutes (WHILE WEARING AN OVEN MITT.) Mixed appropriately and worked great.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work in newer 6 speed Harley Davidson transmissions
Answer:	I used it in my 2011 FXDC at it really smoothed out the tranny (6 speed) in my opinion. FYI: I used Lucas 20w50 synthetic motorcycle in my chaincase and Lucas regular 20w50 synthetic (non-motorcycle) in the engine. I noticed an improvement all around almost immediately. Engine runs smoother, shifts better, and although I do not have a temp gauge on my bike I definitely feel like it runs cooler. If you have a Harley with 3 holes I'd definitely recommend using the non-motorcycle synthetic version for the engine as it has additional friction modifiers that makes it more 'slippery'. You just don't want to run a lubricant with additional friction modifiers where your clutch is. If you live in a hotter climate you may want to consider the 75W140 synthetic but I'm in Ohio so the 75W90 is perfect for me.
Question:	I have a G80 locker differential in my 99 silverado and not limited slip. Is this the correct stuff
Answer:	yes, for use with or without limited slip
Question:	I have a 1980 350 chevy dump truck.. can I use this fro gear oil
Answer:	Yes you can, it is a synthetic gear oil and also designed for limited slip gearing.
Question:	does this have the friction modifier already in it for limited slip rears
Answer:	No, if your differential calls for the additive, you have to add some anyways. This is the case with dodge differentials 8.25" and 9.25" in the rears with limited slip. The OEM manual should say to add it if its limited slip or has trak-lok. Excerpt from manual "Trac-lok™ equipped axles require a friction modifier be added to the lubricant."

User questions & answers

Question:	Would this be safe to use in a 2000 toyota celica gt
Answer:	Yes--after some research, this is the oil I chose for my 2000 Celica GT when I replaced its clutch.
Question:	Can this be used in a snowblower auger
Answer:	I have no idea. If it matches the specs for the auger’s gear box, then it should work like any other gear oil. The important thing to consider is the GL rating that your snowblower needs.
Question:	Do I pour the entire contents directly in? Are there any special instructions
Answer:	To get maximum benefit of the Red Line you need to replace all the oil in the transmission. For my car, it took 3.4 quarts so I bought four and filled it up until fluid was level with the bottom of the fill plug. If you go to the Red Line website, they have which transmission oil is correct for your car and the capacity of the transmission so you will know how much you will need.
Question:	Is anyone running this in an NV4500 long term? How does it hold up
Answer:	No experience with the NV4500. Been using it in an '08 Tacoma 5-speed since the first change (now 150K+) with no problems. Two things to keep in mind: 1- This is a GL-4; 2- it is not on NV's recommended list. Both the Redline website and "Bob is the oil guy.com" have a lot of info that might help you decide.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this gear oil contain extreme pressure additives
Answer:	Both Wright's Silver Cream and Wright's Anti-Tarnish Silver Polish are a gentle, all-purpose polish which removes tarnish and leaves a brilliant shine while removing and preventing the return of tarnish. Our Wright's Silver Cream is recommended for use on sterling silver, silver plate, silver jewelry, antique silver, flatware, pewter, chrome, fiberglass & porcelain. To use the Silver Cream, rub cream directly on the surface with the enclosed sponge, or soft dry cloth. Rinse with water then dry and buff using a clean soft cloth. Our Wright's Anti-Tarnish Silver Polish is recommended for use on all silver including sterling silver, silver plate, jewelry & fine antique silver. To use the Silver Polish, rub polish directly onto surface using a soft cloth or towel. Buff with a clean, soft cloth to achieve a brilliant shine. Depending on the item you are polishing, the Anti-Tarnish Silver Polish might be a better option for use on decorative items, as you do not need to wash off the product after use, meaning the product will protect the item longer from tarnish reappearing. If using either product on a surface which would come into contact with food, you need to thoroughly wash the item with a mild dish detergent and hot water afterwards.
Question:	Is it good to use for outboard low unit
Answer:	Hello, The Goddard's Silver Polish Foam is used to clean and shine your fine silver. As long as your eating utensils are fine silver, you can safely use it. Thank you.
Question:	will this work for harley-davidson 2008 low rider, transmission and primary, tks
Answer:	You don’t want more liquid consistency. It dilutes the polish making it less effective. Using the sponge and the liquid that comes with polish. Put it on your object. Let it dry; wipe it off (dry) with a soft cloth and then wash it with dish soap; let it drip dry for a few minutes and finish polishing/brightening with a soft cloth. If your polish in the jar has dried up completely use enough on the water on the sponge to moisturize the dry polish. Please don’t dump water in......ineffective.
Question:	Can this gear oil work in walk behind rear tiller gear box
Answer:	Yes, it works really great on silver. I have a pendant and a chain that I wear everyday and it was very tarnished. The Goddards paste worked great. I needed to use a soft toothbrush to work the paste into a foam on the pendant because it had lot of detail and it was very dirty, but ithe Goddards cleaned it very well

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use it for mustang gt
Answer:	This item is designed for spark plugs, which generally operate at high temp. So, it should work for greasing stators as well in terms of the temp.
Question:	Can I use it for mustang gt
Answer:	It is formulated to withstand higher temperatures and it does not break down in the spark plug environment. Because it is non-conductive. Silicone Dielectric Grease is not the same as Thermal Grease. Silicone Dielectric Grease is a temperature resistant material used for lubrication and as a sealant to prevent corrosion. Thermal Grease is a temperature conductive material used to assist with efficient heat transfer to a heat sink
Question:	Can it be used in transmission pan too ? Or is just for diffs and transfer case
Answer:	Doesn't bond like an adhesive if that's what you mean. It is a grease, lubricant, protective coating.
Question:	Is one tube enough or front and rear differentials of Permatex 81182 Gear Oil RTV Gasket Maker, 3 oz
Answer:	I'm pretty sure it's the same stuff only in a bigger and more economical tube rather than those little tubes when labled for bulbs. I use this"grease" on the threads to all my indoor light bulbs so than they will be easier to remove next time and I'm going to use it on automotive bulbs too.Both tubes are labeled "dielectric" .
