mfg Posted February 17, 2017 Report Posted February 17, 2017 When Paxton was manufacturing ball drive superchargers (such as the SN-60) they recommended using their own 'in house' blower fluid...The Paxton fluid was named...........? 1) Pax-grip...........2) Pax-loc..........3) Pax-trac.....or.......4) Happy-Balls
r1lark Posted February 17, 2017 Report Posted February 17, 2017 While #4 would have been a great name (imagine the ads they could have come up with ), I believe it was #3, Pax-trac.

brad Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 You can make your own that is exactly the same. Use B&M original Trick Shift, and three tablespoons of STP.

I'm a little surprised to hear that Brad....I always thought STP was TOO slippery, and would cause the drive element balls to slip and 'fry'!!
brad Posted February 20, 2017 Report Posted February 20, 2017 That is why only three Tspoons. The long chain molecule is what is needed. It doesn't drain off the drive element after sitting. This tech tip was told in an old newsletter in the early 70's Perhaps by John Erb himself IIRC.
