>>>i asked one of their tech engineers about rotella 15/40 and was told that
>>>it still has 1200 ppm of zddp. this means no additives needed<<<
That is good news!!!
FYI, some here run a T-5. My '88 Turbo Coupe ran ATF. However, I have a
Chilton's manual that says if it gets noisy to to run a 50/50 mixture of ATF
and 90wt. A friend of mine following Pete Brock preparation methods ran
50/50 ATF - 90 wt in his Datsun 510. 35+ years later the tranny is still
good. I know at some point the T-5 went to some type of fiber based syncro
(whatever that is). I think the GM based T-5's got this later. Not sure if
the syncro or world class designation changed lubrication needs for a T-5.
