Hey fellas, I'm a newbie and have gotten fairly confused reading up on what transmission fluid to use on my blast. I want to use Mobil 1, but the forums have many different names for what to use like gear oil, gear lube, etc. Could someone please post the complete name and number of the oil/lube to use and whether it says gear lube, gear oil, transmission oil or whatever on the front of the bottle. P.S. I live in Florida, if the hot temperature makes any difference. Much appreciated.

Nevermind, called the hd store and he told me, but is it completely neccessary to change the inspection cover gasket when I change the primary?

The inspection cover gasket is probably OK to use over again. Just check it for damage and reuse if it looks OK. Even if it leaks later, not a big deal to replace. I had used mine at least 3 times with no problems. Don't over tighten when reusing it.
BTW be careful NOT TO OVERFILL.
