Ok. Changed fluid when I put my SB clutch in a while back. I thought my synchronizers in 3rd were going out. I finally drove my truck on a road trip and then pulled by big trailer today. I noticed that after the long trip and the tranny finally got up to 200F (40F outside currently) it shifts normal and doesn't grind at all. When I drive in the mornings it grinds when everything is cold so I thought the synchs were going.
Are the sync actually bad or is it just this Amsoil doesn't perform worth a toss in the cold? I'm beginning to second guess my tranny fluid selection.
What are your opinions on Amsoil in the cold? Any one noticed this? Is there a better fluid that is proven? Someone in the cold states chime in and tell me I can change my fluid and fix my rough 2nd to 3rd shift! :rockwoot: It would sure beat tearing the tranny down!
(and I spelled isn't wrong...what a dunce) I can't edit it!!!
