My B is fitted with a 4-synchro O.D. tranny, which was rebuilt last = year. It seems that the gears in the tranny have a ceramic like coating = on the taper that the synchro ring rides on. The bond b

Chris....if the factory had felt it was OK to run the gearbox low on oil, they'd probably have fitted a longer dipstick. Also, if they hadn't wanted you to use engine oil, they'd have said so. I thin

Thanks for chastising me on this one. Getting a little cranky are we? = I know that the owners manual specifies motor oil, I didn't choose to = have it filled with 90 weight. What I wanted to know wa

Auto stores and Walmart type department stores sell a pump that fits the top of a quart of oil. It works like the pump on a bottle of ketchup. Attach a piece of hose to the end and stick it in the tr

As far as I know, the tranny is ONLY supposed to be filled with engine oil - just like it says in all the manuals. I've heard that the OD will not work very long with 90 wt gear oil. Your 'brit only

I disagree with you about synthetic gear oil in O/D transmisions. I have been using Redline MTL and MT90 in these with no problems. A long talk with Dave at REdline confirmed that it will give no pr

There was quite a bit of discussion of the engine oil vs hypoid gear oil in transmissions. One of the opinions offered was that hypoid gear oil has a high sulfur content and is deadly to the brass sy

As far a flushing the gear oil out, I doubt that you could do it. As far as filling the tranny, pump the oil in until it runs out, just as you would do with the rear end. Using a pump you can do it f

I know this response may be a little late for your purposes, but I changed my oil in the gearbox over the weekend in order to replace a faulty seal on the speedometer pinion. I chose 20W/50 (strictl

There is a retaining plate which holds the gearshift pivot ball in place. It is held on with 3 bolts accessable under the shifter boot. Springs between the bolt head and retaining plate allow for a l
