Agree. The stick shifting seems to be smoother with the 30W vs. gear lube,
although I don't notice any difference when shifting in out of overdrive.

Hi Bill,

30W non-detergent, by far the best for a OD box.

See second item down on this page:

John Esposito really knows what he's talking about.

David.

I almost dread bringing up this question but here goes:  I'm having the TR-6
gearbox w/overdrive serviced tomorrow (drain and refill) and am curious as
to
the latest concensus of what type of oil to use. I see Valvoline 20w/50 R
recommended often--but am looking for the most current thinking.  Any
recommendations from high mileage owners?
