I use one of those plastic pumps too, and GL4. That is when you know it is full; when it starts running down your arm. Just part of the fun of owning a jeep that those who don't/won't perform their own PMCS, will never experience. But if tractor supply has GL1, I will check that out. GL4 is not cheap; about $40 a gallon.
