transmissions

In racing my Arnolt I found I had constant gearbox issues. It seems that the proper oil will expand in the heat of racing and effect the synchros. Typically you will lose third gear and then second as the oil expands and interferes with the mechanical processes. The solution is Automatic transmission fluid. If anyone has a balky gear box, I would recommend ATF to put off a rebuild. Kevin
