OUCH!!!
Mobil 1 gear oil is a GL-5 oil not suitable for transmissions!
It's chalk full of high pressure additives that are highly corrosive to the soft metals in a transmission. It will tear up your syncros, blocker rings, etc...
By all means flush out your tranny ASAP!!!
Demon what do you reccomend for reducing noise? My Quaife is as loud as H-E-Double hockeysticks and annoying as can be. I have some MTL in the garage I just need to change it but do you think it would just be louder?
I offer PnP Heads for all durtec's details at PnPheads.com or jesse@pnpheads.com for details.
