Reply to "Shift Linkage Adjustment or clutch drag?"

panterrorMy 74 GTS

Lube gets changed at the beginning of every season. I've been working and traveling a lot so probably only log 3k miles per year or so; sad but so. Ya-know, regarding the lube, this does seem to coincide with my use of Valvoline Durablend, or at least the aggravation of the condition. It's 80W/90 but is a synthetic blend. Maybe I'll go back to good old dino lube and see if it behavior improves. The RBT-2ZF in my GT40 sure seems to like it and I beat the piss out of it.

I'll probably remove the gate too. I figure if the shifting engagement feels good, it probably is much easier on the syncros and something that easily engages lessens the likelihood of missing a gear. I use 1-5 much more often than reverse. Can't say I really care if the gate is there. Just a bit bemused about the change. Thanks for your replies and I'll keep you all posted.

Best,
K
