I think that there are some excellent suggestions offered on the list and
I can only submit my recent experience. My tranny appears to have a bad
2nd gear sychro. I drained the gearbox and filled it with Slick 50 gear
oil. It's cheap and available at my local parts store. I won't say that
it solved my problems, but it has made the car more driveable. Filler plug
should be on the drivers side, 'bout half way up the tranny case. I used a
funnel attached to a hose, and it wasty easy to fill. I am trying to delay
that tranny rebuild or replacement! However, after reading Marc Sayers'
comments, I may step up to the Redline Synthetic. Sounds pretty positive.
What is the compatibility with the leftover residue in the system from a
non synthetic lubricant?
