Swepco 201 which is 80/90 wt. is the choice fluid

I have not used the 212 w/moly, we have tested other slippery fluids in the early style 901/915 syncro systems and it seems to work too well by not letting the syncro design do its job... we always go back to 201 swepco

1 gallon will be more than enough, 3qts. plus
