          1. Valvoline 75w90 Synthetic Gear Oil claims to meet SAE J2360 specifications. However, Valvoline 75w140 Synthetic Gear Oil does not make the same claim. Does this product meet the SAE J2360 spec?

          5. I have been using SynPower Brake Fluid and/or Power Steering Fluid in the past. Is it ok to top off with other products or do I need to drain the system first?

            You can top off with other products as long as they meet the manufacturer's specifications.

          Motor Oil Myths

          Thicker oil is better.
          Thicker oil can be better for older engines in which engine parts have worn over the years. However, it is generally recommended to always stick with the viscosity recommended by the manufacturer of the particular engine.
