The manual transmissions I'm familiar with are either old, heavy duty, or Mercedes. And the W123 all use Dexron II for the manual transmission. My GM 4-speed pickup (117 mm) requires 80W90 GL-5 gear oil. The big truck transmissions I'm familiar with use either 50W or 75-80W90 gear oil. I just checked my '85 GM factory service manual. The 3-speed and the small 4-speed use DexronII. The big 117mm 4-speed uses 80W90. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.
