- Hi Jerry, I suspect it will make the synchros even slicker and consequently a slower synchro action as a result. Synthetic lubricants have that effect, that is making the synchro action worse. These

- I have a '61 E-Type with the original Moss box that also suffers from slow synchros. I haven't tried this myself, but at least a couple of people on the E-Type list have put Redline MTL (a synthetic
