------------------------------------------------------------------
   In my quest to find the correct gear oil for the 1500 spitfire/midget
gearbox, it seems as though there is something internally different
between the two.  For some reason, the MG box specifies a GL5 oil and
rumor has it that a GL4 will destroy it, while the triumph box needs a
GL4, but a GL5 will ruin that one.  Anyone know the reason ?
   Besides the gear oil dilemna everything else is working just fine.
