Isn't that 90 weight manual transmission (gear) oil? Why would you run that in your motor?

Yes but it has an engine oil viscosity of 15W40. Here are a couple of links to their page.

Nrath kinda curious on this one. Why do you say this. I know amsoil is a good product and is running in a quad with over 300 hrs and that is all that was ever used in it. Of course it isn't mine anymore, but that is another story!
