Re: [MV] M35a2.. 80/90 gear oil... or?

I was experiencing similar problems, along with gear noise, in my 5 ton and
I added Lucas brand oil treatment, noise went away also hard shifting, now
as to temp. cannot tell any difference, tranny is still too warm to hold
your hand on after much of a trip.

Friend of mine put this treatment in every oil holding box on his Scout car
and is very well pleased with the results.

I am not much on additives but friend of mine spoke so highly of this (he is
old time mechanic) that I tried it

I have 80-90 GL-1 in my tranny..

I notice that when it is hot, after say 30 minutes on ye olde
highway at 50 MPH, the gears can be harder to shift through after
stopping at a light than they are when the transmission is cool..
That is, it takes more force on the stick.

So, is the the oil? Would non-EP GL5/MT1 be better? I wonder
what the issue may be.
