Chew on this for a while. I won't post links of all the positive usage reports from the internet for Redline MTL on transmissions using the same alloys and technologies as our beloved mtx-75. You people can search google for that. I did have a hard time finding negatives though.




Well explain this to me then. From the sheet.

� Satisfies manual transmissions and transaxles requiring
motor oils, or GL-1, GL-3, or GL-4 gear oils


Sounds like it has sulpher based additives to meet the requirements for other transmissions that may require GL type additives. Hypoid gear oil has sulphur based additives. These are a no no in alloy trans. cases. They cause major oxidation (sulphuric acid). ATF's DO NOT contain sulphur, MTL does. Which we will see how much when the lab tests come in.
