<< Perhaps my memory is failing but it sure seems to me that 30wt oil was the

defeats the synchros which are, after all, little clutches and makes them
hard to shift. Most british boxes used 30wt which at the time seemed odd to
me. I had serviced US cars prior to working on imports and only Chrysler
used lighter oils, in some cases ATF.

My '71 +8 owner's manual recommends 90W gear oil for the gear box.
