Roger Ford made many internal changes to the manual transmissions in 2000 or 01. The changes changed the fluid capicity. Before the changes, the capicity was 2.7 quarts. After the changes the capacity was 2.2 quarts. Starting with the revised transmission, they started using a golden or honey colored synthetic fluid. I don't think we can get proof w/o calling a dealer. When the honey came out they stated that it should be used now on all 95 to current MTX-75's. You can just call and ask them.
