too thin,
and now all the synchro's grind. IMO
controversial to the max. and brand name religion, i avoid....
it wont hurt the gears, or bearings on such a small hp engine or the light load 1000lbs car.
but the synchro's are tuned for GL4, and ATF is very thin , how is the cup /cone interface going to work better, with light oil.? especially worn?
ATF is based off of 5w oil, i think, most GL4 is like off 30w.
my guess, is some have been running GL5 that have huge GL5, EP additives, in there, that mess up the shifting. (makes the shifts balky and slow)
so try ATF and sure it works better?
real GL4 does not have those EP additives. i think this is the problem.
it not want to risk my tranny running ATF, the wrong lube.
may cars, with M/T use ATF
some even had to switch back to GL4 due to overheated 5th gears. (found car TSB';s)
some had to switch from GL4 to ATF because it had a pump (wow) that overloaded cold.
some tranny use ATF (mt) due to : They use a three piece fibrous clutch type synchro, (not found here) (non brass syncrho is totally different system)
