People go to great expense and trouble trying to find the perfect gear lube. A few weeks ago somebody from Snyders said that they sold 140 and that Bratton sold the same because they sold it to them. That said why pay shipping from a model A vendor or buy five gallon quanities when 140 can usually be purchased locally and works as well as any other. I used 90 weight gear oil in the sixties and seventies and i'm not so sure that it didn't work better.
