A freind of mine (more knowledged in the auto world than myself) was telling me if you use 75W90 Full Synthetic Gear Oil in the tranny, it'll be amazingly smooth. He uses it in his Probe, but I am sceptical (as usual). Anyone ever try this? I ran a search already! 99 Ford Contour SVT - SOLD!! '90 CRX Si, '98 Explorer V8, '98 Acura ITRally Co-Driver

GL-5 will attack yellow metals, including the synchros. The latest Ford fluid specified for the MTX is a full synthetic 75-90 GL-4 fluid, but it works even better with a little additional ftiction modifier. Jim Johnson 98 SVT 03 Escape Limited
