Interesting. Castrol Syntrans multivehicle 75W90 was generally my pick for this Motsu/Getrag (?) transaxles. But I don't know if you have this in the US...doesn't matter, they cheapened out the formula recently, and I'll have to find something else !

So this is interesting. Someone posted your VOA in my thread about the Mobil Delvac synthetic transmission fluid 50 https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubbthreads.php/topics/4940313/1 BUT after looking at it in comparison to the Blackstone VOA done on the 5 fluid comparison https://www.bobistheoilguy.com/foru...or-dodge-diesel-manual-trans#Post4940314 Seems the VOA you posted is much different from the one posted by Carbonite Cummins http://www.carbonitecummins.com/Documents/Trans%20Oil%20Comparison.pdf Are you sure your sample was mobil Delvac synthetic trans fluid 50?

Carbonite Cummins was from 2012... I bet they split the formula into Delvac 50, which is GL-4, and Delvac 75W-90, which is GL-5... Or I could have forgotten to shake the bottle... Note that there is a third Delvac transmission fluid, Delvac ATF, which is very similar to Dexron III / Dexron VI...

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