Help, Can I use 75W-90 synthetic gear oil in the transaxle? Got the old stuff drained out, smells awful. Thanks

    The factory called for Multi-purpose gear lubricant , 80w for below 0 F and 90w for above 0 F. What you have should work, the synthetic is a superior lubricant. I have had the synthetic oils leak a little worse through old seals than the regular oils though.

    Thanks, just second guessing myself. The stuff that came out was pretty thick, no telling how long it in there. Thanks again
