Maybe it's because automatic transmission fluid can handle cold and heat extremely well, better for keeping seals healthy and acts as a great cleansing agent with great viscosity properties. Oh... and it's a pretty color also |

Re: diff fluid
I think this answers one reason i would stick with 30w in the golf cart diffs. Not to say the 80w/90w is not going to work, but the drag that heavy oil puts on the gearing is definetly going to effect a sparkies power. Any drag put to a sparky translates to less run time.
