Hypoid oil is for auto trannys. It is just an additive I think. No good if you want to find nuetral. I used it by mistake once and changed it right out cause it was a pain in the neck to hit nuetral.

Kenny,

I use Klotz 15w50 fully synthetic in the engine and the Honda 85w tranny oil for....welll.....the tranny. Just make sure you run synthetic Motor oil. It's all good stuff.

I'll be selling Redline oil here pretty quick....you wanna talk about some good oil!!!!
