mattri Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Just checked the gear oil in the tranny today an noticed litlle bubbles in the gear oil on the stick. I've never noticed this before as I remember but then, it's been a while. Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torxxx Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 yeah it happens to any oil that gets pumped or circulated. If you've used Lucas Oil stabilizer any time in that oil or in the previous oil thats why theres the bubbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
85Sub4WD Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I would not lose sleep over it. 1st the tranny is rock-solid 2nd it is normal if you have been driving it b/c the gear teeth pick up and circulate the gear oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Doesn't sound as if its foaming, as such. Small amounts of bubbles are normal, the oil going all foamy isn't - this generally happens when the wrong oil is used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattri Posted February 3, 2005 Author Share Posted February 3, 2005 Thanks for the replies. The leval is correct according to the dipstick and the gear oil is 80-90. It isn't foamy like soap bubbles, you can just see a lot of bubbles in it. Everything shifts fine. It's funny, but I can't for the life of me remember if I've seen this before or not. Must be getting old. Matt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
