Re: [DMCForum] Transmission Fluid

["Walter Coe" <Whalt@xxxxxxx>]

More about Samuel's transmission:
We found automatic transmission fluid instead of 90W gear
oil in the final drive.  I since discussed this with someone
knowledgeable about transmissions.  He said that old Datsun
240's, 260's & 280's came from the factory with 90W gear oil
and were prone to stiff shifting in cold weather, i.e., not
shifting out of 1st or reverse.  The factory authorized fix
for this was replacing the 90W gear oil with automatic
transmission fluid.  All later (Nissan) models are shipped
with automatic transmission fluid in the final drive.

I don't know if any of that is true, but YOU heard it on the
internet, so it must be true, yeah, right.
