Just to expand for those that might be interested, the sulphur is part of the EP (extreme pressure) additive, known as sulphur-phosphorus, the most common automotive gear lube EP additive. As for viscosity grading, gear oil uses a different numerical spec than engine oil but as far as actual viscosity rating, SAE 90 gear oil and SAE 40 engine oil fall within essentially the same rate of flow.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
