Cool

The main thing is to get some oil on the bottom gear. It actually takes very little oil to keep everything lubricated when in motion, but sitting still the oil settles to the bottom and the bottom gear may not be in the oil. That can crater the gear set. Fill till the level is at the bottom of the plug hole.

okay but what about my original question? Ok, manual says to use redline says 75-90ns or equivalent. The only mobile1 synthetic I can find is 75w-90LS. Is this the one to use or do I need something different? Is ls okay to use?

I wouldn't use it. If theres a failure and sprintex/innovative wants an oil sample... you're screwed... I bought mine from Amazon and actually called redline..asked what NS meant..they told me non synthetic

Not picking an argument but in your picture of the the oil and on the bottle it says all synthetic formula? So I am confused at what to use. I understand what you are saying I just want to find a oil I can use that I can get locally so I do not have to order it. Just get it when I need it.
