I am interested in obtaining synthetic gear oil for my car. Someone mentioned that a company named "Amsoil" makes it. Could anyone give me their address, or just the city they're located in, or anything that could lead me to a source for their product? My 1984 Toyota Supra is reluctant to shift when I start it up in the morning at 20 degrees Farenheit. I am hoping this would alleviate the problem. Mark Stevans ritcv!husky!mls

With regard to shifting at low temperatures and gear oil: There was a garage here in N.C. years ago that carried drums of 80W-90 stuff made by a company in Houston called - LUBRICATION ENGINEERS. It was impressive stuff and is used I believe by folks that run big earth moving equipment which is tough to shift when cold and doesn't warm up real quick. Never saw it in quarts, just ~40 gallon drums. They did make a nice 30 weight motor oil that you could get in quarts. Anyone out there know a place to buy these products? John Pierce RTI RTP, NC
