I purchased Red Line RED42804 V-Twin Transmission Oil on November 8, 2013 and never used it and it's still sealed. Can I use it now? Is there an expiry date for oils?

 

I am no authority on the subject, but i believe as long as it hasn't been opened your good, that being said there has to be a time limit to that school of thought as well.
Sorry i am not more help, Someone on this forum will know,
just my

 

I would use it. I have used decade old oils before with no problems.

 

Even if it was opened I’d use it. Only thing I wouldn’t use would be open brake fluid, mines DOT 5, and it absorbs moisture.

 

Thank you guys for your responses, I will use it then...

 

Unless you opened it, used in motor, poured back in jugs and resealed...you're good.

 

Shake the bottle first.

 

You were right about it...

Here is a response from Redline:

Thank you for contacting Red Line Oil, our products don’t have a shelf life, the V-Twin Transmission Oil would be suitable for use.
With the ShockProof gear oils it is advisable to shake them before use.

use it in the primary its good stuff ... help quiet my tranny clunk... use some 75-140 in tranny all will be quieter

 

If I was using Redline tranny fluid,how long can the bike sit before I have to shake it before I use it?

Just wondering?
