I just replaced the gearbox oil on the Triumph gearbox on my
Midget 1500.

  I used Castrol Hypoy 80w90. Now I am reading about this potential
danger to brass parts in the tranny.

  Nobody seems to have the final word though. Does anybody know
for sure if I am doing a bad thing? Should I change it ASAP and
what should I get in there?
