    plug identification

    awesome, thank you i think you guys are right about the plug not required for anything, but i do believe i'm having an alternator issue. those lights, (batt, tbelt, and filter) came on intermittently at first and now they won't go off. belts are good. one battery is good the other not so good...

    Motul 75w90?

    i just went with redline MT-90 75w90 GL4. it's the "GL4/GL5" on the back of the Motul bottles that steered me away. worried about the whole "yellow metals" thing. thanks for the info. though, i appreciate it.

    Motul 75w90?

    thanks for the info. i was a bit confused by all the GL4 GL5 stuff in FAQ. although these bottles state "GL4/GL5" on the back of the bottle. you think that means it's good to go for a 90 HZJ77?
