Hi. I have an older 1960's horse tiller. I need gear oil for the transmission. All I can find is Traveller multi purpose gear oil, API service, GL-5. Is this okay to use? Thanks, Bill

Troy-Bilt says that if adding a few ounces only, use GL-4 or GL-5 gear oil. If refilling an empty transmission, use GL-4, with a viscosity of SAE 85W-140 or SAE 140. Best regards, --W/D--

API GL-4 You are seeing that right, one instance they call for 75W90 and the other it is ATF. It is ok to run either, 75W90 will give you smoother shifts and less noise.
