This is probably about as basic a question as you can ask but....I'd rather
ask and look dumb that not ask at all!

Herman recommends the following gear oils for the Toyota 5 speed: Redline
Gear Oil 75W Valvoline GL 5 80-90W, Kendall Gear Oil 75W or..... API Gear
Oil GL4 or GL5. 

Is API a type of Gear Oil or a is it a standard that various oil oils must
meet? For example, I saw Castrol Gear Oil with the API GL5 designation on
the label. It just seemed strange that he specified Redline, Valvoline and
Kendall by brand name.

Thanks
