    An old guy had a model A based swamp buggy I helped him work on when I was in my teens. We open the diff on that thing and I about ran out of the barn. It was gawd awful stenchy. It was probably from the 50's....They used the same gear oil for everything then I bet. Another stinky oil is the ford friction modifier additive for locker diffs.

    First time I opened an old lower I freaked. Did not know they used grease instead of oil.

    GM supercharger fluid has to be one of the worst oil/grease I've smelt. Helped a friend change out a bushing on Buick Regal GS with the supercharged 3.8. That stuff was awful. Was a heck of a sleeper car though.
