Robert, It is very unlikely that your hard shifting into first is based on transmission lubrication. Your problem is probably related to the clutch hydraulic system. Does you DeLorean have the factory plastic clutch line or the improved stainless steel braided line. If you find the plastic unit in place replace it with the stainless unit and you will have smooth sailing; or should that be shifting! If you don't know where to look for this item contact me directly for information.
