Hey everyone,
I picked up a great condition 1984 Plymouth Colt GTS Turbo with a Twin-Stick transmission - a true survivor with a rather interesting trans. I want to ensure I change the transmission fluid with the best possible choice as there is are very little if any parts left out there should something in the drivetrain go.
The manual that came with the car calls for API GL-4 SAW 75W-85W, Haynes recommends "SAE 80 gear oil", while the Chrysler factory service manual recommends "MOPAR Hypoid Gear Oil or equivalent".
I've been considering Redline MT-85 (75W85 GL-4) and would appreciate any recommendations as my experience with pre 90's cars and their nuances is limited.
Thank you!
