Is there anything special about the oil used in the blowers on our trucks?, is it possible to use another type of oil, like mobile 1 motor oil or another type of lite oil?, im just asking and trying to learn here, I don`t plan on doing this to my truck, I was just wondering.

redline supercharger oil, i wouldnt put anything else, as this is a lifetime oil, i think you can get it from the dealership (gm dealerships are cheaper)

 

ditto

 

I know you said you wouldn't but please, do not put any kind of motor oil in your supercharger .

Go to your friendly Pontiac parts dealer and buy some of their Eaton s/c oil.

Use nothing but the aproved oil from the dealer.Pontiac has the best price I get it for $5-$6 a bottle here in Valdosta.It comes in a 117ml bottle I'm not sue if that is the right amout or not my M45 on my Miata help 96ml the m62 and M90's I think took 117ml but not sure.

So everyone is using the GM S/C oil not the Ford stuff>??? When are you all doing your first change. I am most likely gonna throw an upper pulley on mine so I will change it then. Thanks, -Mat-

 

It's not "Ford or GM stuff". It's Eaton stuff, GM just sells it cheaper.

Thanks. -Mat-

 

i got my redline oil from JDM, $6 a bottle I think........

 

No, I wasn`t going to use motor oil in my blower, I was just wondering if it was something special/different than motor oil, and I guess it is.

Thanks
