OK--After talking to him, I got the real scoop--he says that after he is in OD, in which he likes to leave it, and after slowing down and then depressing the accelerator rapidly it should kick out of

It sounds like his OD is working correctly. It should always be in OD as long as the switch is on. It will stay in OD when the switch is turned off until you accelerate beyond 1/5 throttle or approx

I'll add my 2 cents here for what it is worth. I agree with David & Dave on O/D working. What I haven't seen is if he really has 90 wt oil in the tranny. If he does, that is not correct and could cau

If I remember right, 90 weight gear lube has the same viscosity as either 30 or 40 weight engine oil. To go from apples to oranges you need a translation. I don't think anyone has 90 weight engine oi

Right on, Roland, The main difference in the viscosity ratings is that: Engine oil viscosity is SAE rated at 210 degrees F. Gear oil viscosity is SAE rated at 100 degrees F. For example, Redline list

Now I'm really confusered. So why did I just put $7.00/qt MT90 in my trany instead of $1.40 10/40. Hmmm? Thanks Guys, Mark

He does have 90w, but his OD seems to be working OK when he uses the dash switch to engage/disingage. He was just under the wrong impression as to how it works. I always have used 30ND as well. I'll

It's called mass marketing. They make a gazillion quarts of 10W40 oil to a few dozen quarts of MT90 oil, by comparasion. And just a note, I paid $2.62 a quart for Castrol 10W40 a few weeks ago at Wa

It's worth $16.80 ($21 - $4.20 (cost of the dino oil)) "extra" to me to have smoother shifting and a little quicker and more consistent O/D engage. Another Lister has noted less brass shake produced

Agreed it sounds like it is working as per design. Perhaps the owner is a candidate for the OD switch on the shifter mod. This way he can "down shift" quicker which would be closer to his driving ha
