U unDummy Joined Feb 1, 2003 Messages 8,755 Location RI Oct 1, 2010 #4 Amsoil MTG or Redline MT90 are easy choices. Napa usually has Stalube 85w90 GL4. Valvoline GL5 75w90 pn vv820 is one that the local auto part stores usually carry. Can't find the Pennzoil 75w90 GL4 anywhere anymore. The local Ford dealer usually has some overpriced GL4 and GL5 manual transmission fluid.
