Cool

(repeat of my response to a prior thread):

I'll concur with the other posts. In my '87 with a G50, shifting was notchy 1-2. Replaced with Mobil 1 and shifting has improved - highly recommended.

To those who have not done this, remember, REMOVE THE FILL PLUG FIRST! It's bad form to empty the case without a way to put fluids in. I had to really yank on mine to get it off. Hand pump worked fine, took just over 3 liters.

Make sure you are getting "Synthetic Gear Lubricant", not Slushbox Fluid. The boys at the local Kragen barely knew it existed ("what's a manual transmission?") on the shelf.

Good luck!

Don
