>>Tranny Fluid Info and Experimenting Thread<< (Amsoil, Redline, USC, etc.)
UPDATE:
To start off, a link to " MEMBER TESTIMONIALS (on page 2 of this thread)" where there are tons of testimonials and lots to read.
What I ended up running and install pics. >>>>HERE on page 4<<<<
MY Blackstone analysis of my USC fluid that I replaced. >>>HERE<<<
Also started a "What fluid was your car running when it blew?" thread.
One more link to the Uncle Scotty's Cocktail Thread on Nasioc.
With that said where I started at 1-30-08:
So it is once again tranny fluid time in my car, or getting close anyways. Last time I used a synthetic version of USC or "Uncle Scottys Cocktail" I came up with. It works great, but in my quest to not leave well enough alone and brand homogeneity, I wanna try an all Amsoil formulation. Specifically, replace the Frankenstein colored Redline Lightweight shockproof with something, but we'll see where the research and findings take me.
What I am currently running:
4 0z Amsoil slip lock
1 qt Amsoil MTG
1 qt Amsoil syncromesh
1.5 qt Amsoil 75w90 gear oil.
The bold is what I am thinking about to replace the Lightweight shockproof. They have a lower kinematic viscosity at 40 deg which should lead to improved shift at cold temps. Using all Amsoil products also guarantees (through Amsoil) that I can up the service interval considerably.
Discuss.
Here are the results:
