    According to one of my charts the Peerless gear transmissions take 80W-90 gear oil. But if it is hydrostatic then it should take a multipurpose hydraulic oil.

    Teumseh never made a transmission. they made engines. the transmission should be part of the rear end. I would suggest calling an authorized repair shop and asking them. it's probably 84/140 gear oil but i'm not sure. how ever the engine will use a good quality 30w
