Question about supercharger oil
Ive had my L for a couple months and love it to death. I was just wondering what kind of oil our superchargers use and if checking it just involves removing the plug on the snout. Is the oil level ok if it runs out when you remove the plug or how so i know it is ok?

It uses some wied stuff
Contains
Fatty Acids, C5-10 esters with dipentaerythritol-phosphotic acid, (1.1-dimethylethy)phenol diphenyl ester
It is so wierd I couldn't make this up
Or Eaton supercharger oil
If you ever need it go to a Pontiac dealer
GM part #12345982
But the supercharger doesn't need any servicing for many miles
Since you have a 03 don't worry about it

Chevrolet dealers also stock the oil under the same part number. I don't know what Chevy made that uses it, but they carry it.
