Re: Lubricants - 8th Series

I use Sta-Lube SAE 140 Gear Oil in my 9th Series, should be the same for 8th Series cars as well, available from NAPA but you may have to order it. This gear lube is good for yellow metals which are present in these cars. If you run your car in the cold weather, you may need to go to a 90 WT in the winter, but make sure it is good for yellow metals, not all brands are. I live in South Carolina so cold weather is not a factor. I do have to double clutch the gear box for the first couple miles until the oil gets a little temperature to it.
