I have seen that on the shelves. Seems rather nonsensical, doesn't it? But at least the total range is only 20. Claiming a 45-unit viscosity range is what I found unlikely. In multi-grade oil, viscos

Engine oil. Most people will tell you 20w50. I am using 30wt in that same transmission, on the theory that multigrade is irrelevant to a transmission, and breaks down faster (how often do you change
