I have searched, so don't start flaming me. I had wrote a while back i though it was my slightly leaky master cylinder causing the notchyness but it wasn't really that. When it is hot it usually shifts great, not so great in the cold. I have read that everyone said the gm syncromesh did wonders but it also lessened the life of your transmission. I have also read other people mix the great "white cap" honda mtf with amsoil syncromesh and have had great results. I dont want to use it if it is bad, but will try anything for a smoother shift if it wont wear out the transmission. With that said, what is your guys take on this from the amsoil site.
APPLICATIONS
Recommended for automotive and light-truck applications that require synchromesh transmission fluid. Applications include manual transmissions and transaxles such as New Venture NV T350, NV 1500, NV 2550, NV 3500, NV 3550, NV 5600, and Tremec T4, T5, T18, T56, T176, TKO500, TKO600, TR 3450 and TR 3550. Replaces MTF-94 fluid for Land Rover, MG, and Mini Cooper. Replaces Honda Genuine MTF fluid for manual transaxles and Texaco MTX fluid. Not for use in engines, hypoid rear axles, limited-slip or wet clutch applications.
I wanted to see because I know we have a lsd, but amsoil mtf syncromesh says not for use in limited slip, yet says it is used as a replacement for honda genuine mtf?? What do you guys think. I just want a smooth shift when its cold and hot. Im getting tired of having to try to time a shift for smoothness so thought I would try the 2:1 honda white cap and amsoil syncromesh but wanted some better oppinions as I am not a transmission fluid expert. It did shift smooth when i bought it, then I figured change out the fluid because it needed a change i assumed. I put redline in it and made it suck bad, then back to honda mtf but it still doesnt feel like it use to. Thanks guys.
Oh, if I did miss this in a search flame away lol.
