New differential vent cap with syn fluid?

[Heartbeat Hauler]

I have done some searching and have found some threads that say a different type of vent cap is needed when going to synthetic fluid (Amsoil) in the front differential. I have also read some that say it is not needed and there are no issues. Any difinitive answer on this?

Sorry Jeff, I knew the info was around somewhere but didn't have time to look. I believe the white one is correct.:agreed:

No apologies needed, it's not like people don't have other lives or anything.


Anyways, I saw some threads with info stating that you should change it, but also many threads that said no big deal using the black one. I don't have time right now to deal with a leak so I just bit the bullet and replaced it.
