PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
AMSOIL Synthetic Manual Transmission and Transaxle Gear Lube
(MTG) is a premium blend of the finest synthetic base oils and
advanced, high-performance additives. It is formulated
specifically for maximum protection in the most demanding manual
transmission and transaxle applications where an extreme pressure
GL-4 gear lube is specified, including those where high
horsepower/high torque engines and towing or heavy loads increase
transmission stress.
AMSOIL MTG prevents the thinning effects of
mechanical shear. It maintains its viscosity and superior film
strength for consistent, long-lasting wear protection. MTG excels
in hot and cold temperature extremes that exceed the limits of
conventional mineral oils. It protects against rust, keeps seals
soft for long life, and is compatible with brass synchros for
smooth synchromesh shift quality.
Ideal for NV-4500
Transmissions
MTG is a thermally stable, extreme pressure formulation that
resists heat, oxidation, acid build-up and varnish. It is the
ideal gear lube for high temperature applications, including the
New Venture NV-4500 transmission, which retains heat due to its
cast iron housing and is often subjected to heavy loads and high
torque from turbo-diesel engines.
AMSOIL MTG is the replacement fluid for GM part
#12346190 and Chrysler part #4874459 (Chrysler specification
#MS-9070).
Ideal for Muscle Car
Transmissions
The extreme pressure design of MTG reduces friction, heat and
wear. It withstands the high horsepower and quick shifts common
to muscle cars equipped with large-displacement
engines.
Ideal for Front Wheel Drive
Transaxles
The advanced synthetic formulation provides ultimate protection
for gears and bearings in front wheel drive
transaxles.
Excellent for Service
Centers
MTG is a versatile transmission and transaxle lubricant. It
reduces inventory needs, is readily available and is cost
effective compared to vehicle OEM-branded products.
Performance Features
• Reduces friction, heat and wear
• Superior high temperature stability
• Resists heat, oxidation, acid build-up and varnish
• Lasts two times longer than conventional petroleum
oils
• Improves cold weather shifting
Applications
Recommended for synchronized manual transmissions and transaxles
that require 75W-85, 75W-90 or 80W-90 viscosities and any of the
following performance specifications: API GL-4 and MT-1, ZF TE-ML
02B, 16A, 17A and 19A, Chrysler MS-9070, MAN 341 ML. Recommended
for use in NV 4500 transmissions, and replaces GM part #12346190
and Chrysler part #4874459.
Meets GL-4 performance specifications required
by some models of Acura, Hyundai, Infiniti, Kia, Land Rover,
Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki, Toyota,
Volkswagen, Hino Mitsubishi-Fuso, and Zetor. Ideal for muscle car
transmissions such as Muncie, Borg Warner, Saginaw, Ford
Toploader, Dearborn and New Process. Also recommended for Gear
Vendors Gear Splitters.
Service Life
Under normal operating conditions AMSOIL MTG will last two times
longer than conventional petroleum GL-4 gear oils. Where the
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) recommends synthetic oils,
follow the OEM drain interval (such as NV 4500).
