Re: [DML] Manual Gearbox Fluid Change

[Soma576@xxxxxxx]

Rick,
 
My transmission is out of my car right now, and I am planning on selecting  a 
new transmission fluid for it.  Since I replaced a couple of seals on  
tranny, I plan on running some regular old Valvoline 80w90 in it as a rinse oil,  
then after a month or so I am draining and refilling with this:

(http://www.specialtyformulations.com/MTL-P.htm) 
This oil comes highly recommended from complete oil nuts on an oil and lube  
forum I belong to - these are guys who do used oil analysis and such, and I  
trust their opinion on this fluid.  You may want to check it out too.

not sure  about the last time it was done.  I picked up some Valvoline
75W-90  Gear Oil.  Would this be a safe weight and correct product for
the  gearbox?  Any other recommendations?  The warm weather is  coming
and  I can't wait to get her out of  hibernation!
