AMSOIL
Synthetic Manual Transmission and
Transaxle Gear Lube (MTG) is
designed to meet the special
requirements of certain manual
transmissions and transaxles, such
as the New Venture NV4500. It is
designed to replace AMSOIL 80W-90
Synthetic Gear Lube (AGT) and
provide improved internal component
protection. These transmissions are
cast iron and have exhaust pipes
close to them, causing them to run
hot. Increased operating
temperatures can harden seals and
cause oil leaks. In addition to
lubricating gears, bearings and
synchromesh systems, transmission
oil must keep seals soft even when
temperatures increase. The premium
synthetic formulation of AMSOIL
Synthetic Manual Transmission and
Transaxle Gear Lube is designed to
specifically address the needs of
these hot running transmissions.
MTG is
formulated with extreme pressure
(EP) additives and advanced
synchromesh qualities that provide
smooth shifts while protecting
gears, bearings and seals. It is not
corrosive to yellow metals, such as
copper, that are used in some
synchromesh systems. MTG provides
the maximum transmission and
transaxle internal component
protection.
Applications
MTG is recommended for synchronized
manual transmissions and transaxles
that require 75W-85, 75W-90 or
80W-90 API GL-4 gear lube.
Recommended for use in NV 4500
transmissions and replaces GM part #
12346190 and Chrysler part # 4874459
(Chrysler specification MS-9070).
MTG meets GL-4 performance
specifications required by some
models of Acura, Hyundai, Infiniti,
Kia, Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda,
Mitsubishi-Fuso and Zetor. Ideal for
muscle car transmissions, including
Muncie, Borg Warner, Saginaw, Ford
Toploader, Dearborn and New Process.
