trans fluids
 

What's up guys first time on this site . Quik question i bought a 1990 Lx 5.0 that's been in storage sinse 1997 with 60.000 miles so i've been going through the car fixing allitle of this and that . i've changed the rear end fluid w/slip additive (redline 75-90w synthetic) and i changed the trans gearbox fluid .The book say's this car should use ATF,so i did synthetic ofcourse. I've heard you should use like 5w-30 synthetic motor oil , does anybody have any feedback on this matter i would really appriciate it.( sinse i've changed the fluid the shifter feels more mechanical and you can't shift the car quick with out grinding allitle for about 10-15 min. That's what made me think the prior owner was using a synthetic. THANKS JIMMY.

Manual Transmission uses ATF in '90.

Thanks, somebody was telling me to use what ever brand they put in from the dealer.

Just so you know i'm not one of these guy's that just comes on the site to find out answers to my questions and never comes on again . I seen some guys were making comments about that .Offcourse if i have time to sit in front of the computer and bang around for awhile i'll be on.I thought that's what this was about guy's with the same intrest helping each other out.And if that's all they do all day is sit on the computer then they need to get a life.
