txt joker Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 I went to change my gearbox oil and noticed I’d bought dexron2 atf mineral, Is there a difference between dexron2 or dexron2 mineral or is it all mineral oil. I’m just wary it knackers the seals. Many thanks in advance folks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAD1 Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 If using ATF I'd say much safer using Dexron III as it is higher grade. Never seen anyone using Dexron II Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huski Posted February 7, 2020 Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 Not worth the risk,get the right stuff.Might be ok,if it's not you still need to buy the right oil,and repair the damage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzuki250 Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 I use dexron II in my txt pro I'm sure there's issues with the clutch and synthetic oil on the Gasgas, the clutch pack swells 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
