Hello all,
Yesterday changed oil on the project. Filled
with 2.5 qts Red Line MT 90. Although the
car is on stands without tires, noticed following
changes:
1) Before with car in neutral, tranny would still
have enough drag to spin rear hubs slowly.
This no longer happens. (less friction?)
2) Before car had a bad grunch going into second,
This has disappeared except when shifting very, very fast.
(Yep, tranny work on the list, but it can wait a while now)
3) I can now put the tranny into any gear I want
at idle and the synchros will accelerate up
to speed and let the stick slip into gear without
the use of the clutch.
Just though I would let the list know about this, I remember
a significant thread about Red Line products last spring, and
was never a believer in any "snake oil" type products, but
this stuff appears to help.
