Yea, I actually wasn't sure what it meant either, just read it somewhere. I'll do a search and see if I can find it.

well guess what. i had royal purple in both my trannies. even though they broke the output shaft i think i will be going with good ol havoline dexron 3 this time. oh yay. amsoil went in the engine the other day. even though it isnt running right now. and i changed the diff oil to regular 90w. i dont think i will use synthetics anywhere other than the engine.

Hey one nice use I have found for syn tranny fluid is that it works nice in the hyd system in a snow plow, it flows a bit better in cold weather.
