Does anyone know where to put the gear oil in the transmission?
I can't find the tube that leads to the tranny?

 

there should be a square bolt on the side of the transmission where you can put the gear oil in...i believe it's on the driver side of the trans. i had to get a hand pump in order to fill it up.

Thanks.

 

What kind of gear oil should be used for the transmission? I need to have the fluid changed.

 

i think the weight is 75w-90...it's the most common one. ime, you can really feel the difference when you shift between dino and synthetic gear oil.

Definitely use a Synthetic like Redline, Synergyn, AmsOil, Etc. Like John said, you can really feel the difference.

 

Make sure you use GL4, not GL5. The Sulfate in GL5, I've read, does a bad number on your syncro's.

If you do go Synthetic, absolutly go Red Line or Royal Purple. The Valvoline or Mobil stuff is also bad for your syncro's. I learned that the hard way several sets of syncro's ago.
Icemark is a great reference on this subject.
