    Mobile Delvac/Synchromesh VS. Amsoil MTG 75/90 for G56

    Zeng, Viscosity is all about the same according to their SDS/MSDS. There all right about 86/14-15 Cst. And I know the MTG was airated severely, as when i came out there where tons of bubbles/foam in it through I hadn't moved the vehicle in at least 3 or 4 days. I had to wipe the foam off the...

    Mobile Delvac/Synchromesh VS. Amsoil MTG 75/90 for G56

    Wanted to update this thread. O2SE...You where right! Part of the problem was overfill beyond the acceptable extra, see below. Drained the Amsoil MTG and found out that it was overfilled by about a quart to quart & a half OVER my overfill. So my 7.5 quarts was actually 8.5 to 9 quarts and the...

    Mobile Delvac/Synchromesh VS. Amsoil MTG 75/90 for G56

    Well just a follow up, since nobody could provide any good information on additive packages effects I ended up going with Redline Synthetic 75W-90 and it seems to be working but it is a compromise of better shifting performance for less gear protection.

    Did you use the newer black bottle for your testing? Hers's the Virgin Blackstone from Carbonite Cummins using the old silver bottle with the blue cap, quite different.

    Mobil 1 Delvac 50 transmission fluid VOA

    Comparison of 5 oils for Dodge Diesel manual trans

    Does someone have a VOA on the Torco RTF? One that might include sulfur PPM content? Since it is GL5/GL6 with "EP Additives" according to it's tech dates sheet, I'm wondering how much Sulfur it has in it?

    Mobile Delvac/Synchromesh VS. Amsoil MTG 75/90 for G56

    Seems kind of ghost townish here now that I've provided all the information, no answers to the question again. Guess nobody on here knows nothing, must be magic fairy dust like I speculated earlier? How about anyone have a VOC analysis on the Mobil delvac 1 synthetic transmission fluid 40?

    Mobile Delvac/Synchromesh VS. Amsoil MTG 75/90 for G56

    Ok so I've got some new information that could use some clarification on. 1) I've read that Sulfur eats copper alloys including brass, AKA sulfur eats brass synchros, id this correct? 2) I was told be a tech at Mobil that Delvac 1 Transmission Fluid 50 has a GL-4 sulfur based EP additive...

    YES I think there is a LOT of confusion here: It seems you have your fluids confused as to which fluid acted which way. Refer to the 8th post with the pictures #4924832: Pictures of fluids used I first ran a 3/5 blend of for 25K miles: 62.5% Mobile 1 Delvac Synthetic Transmission SAE 50...
