 Hi List
 I am getting a 76 spifire back on the road, am planing and changing all the
fluids, Engine oil, cooling, Final Drive (diff) & bleed the clutch & brakes.
When I get to the transmission should I change out the fliter on the
overdrive also or should I just leave it alone (let sleeping dogs lie).
Comments on the type of fluid used would be appreciated also.  A while back
ther was some talk about not using 80-90w gear oil in OD transmission.  Per
the Bently manual (on spitfire) use API GL4, SAE 80-90 Hypoigd oil ??  Also
due that fact that I can pick up Demineralized water at work for free.  I am
going to use it in the cooling system along with antifreeze. .

Thanks
