Hello all,

Was in the carshop today and got told that (can't rember the name) but it was automatic transmission oil. Dad recons this will be to thin and do damage to the engine, but the guy in the shop use's this in his GasGas and says its giving him better gear changes. So what oil should I be using for the gearbox/enging in my 2001 GasGas txt 250? Also if anyone knows my 98 kx 250?

Thanks very much

All The Best

Dexron ATF works well in the 01' GG. Dad may confuse oil viscosity as being better for a four-stroke, which the ATF would not be good for. The operating parameters are different between the two-strokes and four-strokes.

We ran the Rockoil Light tranny fluid in our Pro level KX's with good results.
