Re: (ET) oil stabilizer in differential (not in my tractors)

Unless you are ready to change out ALL your oil seals do not use synthetic 
oils in your transmission/differentials.  They are not compatible.

Hi All

The Lucas Oil Stabilizer is probably not a good idea for the transaxles 
and personally I would be very careful about using any of the Lucas 
product, as well as anything like that on Wallmart type stores. because 
they don't actually lubricate they simple make the oil more viscous and as 
such increase the load and steal power. True they will reduce noise but at 
a significant cost. A much better solution is to put a premium Oil in the 
transaxle. I would suggest the 50 weight Cen-Pe-Co or a 100% synthetic oil 
product.  This like these will reduce drag as well as noise because the 
are very high in high quality lubricates. Cen-pe-co is out of Ohio and the 
web site is

www.cen-pe-co.com
