Not a mud motor but I figure you guys will know. Recently bought a 2000 135hp optimax. What is the best lower unit fluid to run? Thanks for the help. |

Any 80-90 gear oil will work. That's what I have been running in mine since first change in 1990. |

It's just gear oil. Go to Wal-Mart and get some rotella 80-90 gear oil. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk |

Be sure to pump it in from the bottom. |

That rotella is probably just as good or better and cheaper. And pump from the bottom till it cones out the top. Like BB said. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk |
