kevoc Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) I have a Beta Rev-3 2004 and currently use Putoline Light Gear Oil in the Gearbox (As recommended by my local dealer). Somebody at ESTC has told me to try Putoline Super DX4 10/40 instead, which is about a 25% of the price of Putoline Light Gear Oil. He uses it in his Gas Gas TXT 2003 Gearbox and was told it would be okay by a Dealer. I am aware that DX4 is techically a 4 Stroke Gear Oil. Has anybody got any experience with DX4 in place of Light Gear Oil? I dont want to save a few quid on Oil, if its going to cause we problems at a later date (Gearbox,Seal, Clutch failure ETC) Kev OC Edited October 5, 2009 by KevOC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smalley250 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 ATF is cheap and works well its used in automatic transmissions so the oil is thin and works under extreme loads. This can be bought for around 7-8 pounds per litre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
