A lot of people think the 90 weight is too heavy or thick but it is very close to a straight 30 or 40 weight motor oil. The viscosity of motor oil and gear oil is measured differently and at different temps. A gear oil has additives and structure that resists the shearing forces between the gear teeth. All TRs came from the factory with this oil and I have used it in customers cars over 40 years. Never a problem. One Healey 3000 had over 976,000 on one rebuild of the overdrive gear box! 90 all the time.</span></div><div id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3540" dir="ltr"><span><br></span></div><div id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3540" dir="ltr"><span>Barry</span></div><div class="m_6370386188672853475qtdSeparateBR" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3541"><br><br></div><div class="m_6370386188672853475yahoo_quoted" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3703" style="display:block"><div id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3702" style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,"Lucida Grande",sans-serif;font-size:13px"><div id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3701" style="font-family:HelveticaNeue,"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,"Lucida Grande",sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div dir="ltr" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3700"><font size="2" face="Arial" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3705"><hr size="1" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3704"><b><span style="font-weight:bold">From:</span></b><span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span>M&M Hado via Fot <<a href="mailto:fot@autox.team.net" target="_blank">fot@autox.team.net</a>><br><b><span style="font-weight:bold">To:</span></b><span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span>'Joe Curry' <<a href="mailto:spitlist@cox.net" target="_blank">spitlist@cox.net</a>>;<span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:FOT@autox.team.net" target="_blank">FOT@autox.team.net</a><span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><b><span style="font-weight:bold">Sent:</span></b><span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span>Tuesday, August 21, 2018 1:51 PM<br><b><span style="font-weight:bold">Subject:</span></b><span class="m_6370386188672853475Apple-converted-space"> </span>Re: [Fot] D-Type Overdrive Recommended oil<br></font></div><div class="m_6370386188672853475y_msg_container" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3720"><br><div id="m_6370386188672853475yiv6525035276"><div id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3723"><div class="m_6370386188672853475yiv6525035276WordSection1" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3722"><div class="m_6370386188672853475yiv6525035276MsoNormal" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3721" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:New"><span>Joe,</span></div><div class="m_6370386188672853475yiv6525035276MsoNormal" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3724" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:New"><span> </span></div><div class="m_6370386188672853475yiv6525035276MsoNormal" id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3726" style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:New"><span id="m_6370386188672853475yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1534874303161_3725">Not sure if anyone answered you yet but I always use 85-90W GL-4 non-synthetic oil.
