I am set to change my oil and filter and the final drive gear oil. I bought Valvoline SAE 10W30 (4 qts) and gear oil Valvoline Synthetic. I know we can use GL3, GL4, or GL5 grade gear oil that is SAE 80 as stated by the 'MOM'. I got the Valvoline Synthetic Gear oil but it is SAE 80W90, GL5 instead if just saying SAE 80. Is this ok to use on mt '07 Venture?

How bad is it? When at highway speeds (50 or above) and I gun it to pass, the clutch slips for a few seconds. Please tell me this can be adjusted "out"! 1987 Y. Venture Royale, 87,000 mi. 215 lb. payload. Recent oil change using oil designed for motorcycle wet clutches at $3 a quart from autozone (Valvoline I think) Is a clutch job a huge deal? Can I do it without a bunch of specialty tools? Some previous posts talk about Heavy Duty springs or an oil fix.

I usually buy Valvoline 20/50 4 stroke mc oil @ my local oil and lube place. He was out of 20/50. He said that the Valvoline oil reps told him that there was no difference between 20/50 conventional and mc 20/50 and that valvoline was discontinuing mc oil. That the only difference was the label. He said that the synthetics were going to follow suit because there is no difference other than the label. I find all of this hard to believe. I tried to go onto the valvoline websight, but it is temporarily down for maintenance. They probably put conventional computer oil into there 4 cycle system lol! If anyone can shed some light on this dilemma please feel free. This world is becoming twilight Zoney! do do do do do do do do.
