Well, I'm excited now. What you put wrote makes all the difference. I would have been spinning on my heels going by the manual.

I've actually known a few of the engineering types that write these kinds of manuals and they love it. They joke amoungst themselves how us non lingo speaking creatures call Tech support and sound like little babies. Anyhow their nice guys there just real brainy and enjoy letting everyone know it.



I just ordered the gear box oil so I can give it an oil change. Mobil Vactra No.1 is recommended gear box oil. Doesn't really make sense to me but I didn't build the thing. I would have figured a new type synthetic would have been recommended and even contacted Mobil to see if they had any upgrade recommendations.

They said Nothing unless I wanted to get rid of the additive package in the Vactra 1. Then they recommended their SHC 630 I think.
