The specification from MG for the gearbox in a MGB GT V8 with overdrive is 80W/90 so there goes the argument against using it. The GT V 8 gearbox is virtually identical to the four cylinder MGB. I ha

<< The GT V 8 gearbox is virtually identical to the four cylinder MGB. >> Sorta a 'key' word Graham, wouldn't you think ??? "...virtually...". Bottom line, there are differences. Cheers & Happy 4th..

I posted this back in January, and since the subject of which oil to use in the gaerbox came up, I thought I'd post it again. Note that this is not for the overdrive unit, as the original post reques

I have been advised that MG *did* rescinded that recomendation and replace it with engine oil, but both my 1973 Workshop manual supplement and 1976 drivers handbook show it as Hypoid 90 or 90/140. Pa

I just came in on the tail of this conversation... What is the wisdom on using/ not using Redline MTL in an MGB O/D tranny? Also, I had some problems getting this account up and runing so if anyone r

IN a standard trans, no problem NO WAY in an overdrive should you use anything but engine oil, according to both the manuals then and now, Moss, and Volvo, who use the same OD The synthetics and ext

If this advice is correct why does the MGB GT V8 carry a factory specification of 80W/90 gear oil, as does a number of the Triumph models (including those with overdrive)? The GT V8 gearbox is near e

Hello list! I'm changing my gearbox (tranny) oil tonight in my '65 Sprite. I see that Moss and others now sell Redline 75W90 and suggest it even for cars whose manuals call for 20X50 oil. Does anyone

Use either Redline MTL, which is a 75w/80(sae 30), or Redline MT-90, which is a 75w/90(sae40). Mosss is using a catchall weight . I got this straight from Redline. Check their website, and give them

Bob Donahue who is still stuck in the '50s asked about locating RedLine products. You can call them at 1-800-624-7958 and they will give you the name of a retailer in your area. Worked for me. YMMV.
